ABSTRACT

SE 508 - Software Reuse

by Richard Conn
Software Engineering Department
Monmouth University

The purpose of this course is to explore contemporary topics in systematic software reuse. This includes the impact of Object-Based and Object-Oriented Design and Programming with Ada83, Ada95, and C++ along with Domain Engineering on the software development process. The course will concentrate on the practical aspects of applying architecture-centric, domain-specific, library-based reuse methodologies integrated with the software development process to create software systems in an efficient, cost-effective manner. The course will illustrate how object-oriented and domain engineering techniques coupled with domain-specific libraries can be used to effectively develop significant software systems in a short period of time, frequently realizing reuse on the order of 70% or more. Libraries of object-based reusable software components will be used to design and implement solutions to problems.

Material presented in this course includes information from the Software Productivity Consortium (the Reuse-Drive Software Processes Guidebook), the Air Force's Comprehensive Approach to Reusable Defense Software program, ARPA's Software Technology for Adaptable Reliable Systems program, Europe's ESPRIT III Project #7808 (REBOOT - Reuse Based on Object-Oriented Techniques), and several other sources (including IBM and HP). Almost all of the reading material can be found in the Public Ada Library (except for a couple of articles and the text books).

The major sections of the course are:

• Review of Software Engineering and the Programming Languages
• Object-Based and Object-Oriented Analysis and Design (with emphasis on designing with reuse)
• Domain Engineering
• Designing for Reuse
• Non-Technical Issues Pertaining to Software Reuse

The texts for the course are:

• Conn, Richard, "Software Reuse - SE 508 - Course Notes, Version 2," 1996, Software Engineering Department, Monmouth University (included in this release)
