By the end of the course participants should:

• Understand how developing software for reuse impacts application developers
• Understand how developing software for reuse is different than developing software in general
• Understand how programming language features facilitate or hinders software reuse
• Understand the role that a software architecture plays in developing software for reuse
• Gain hands‐on experience in developing software for reuse, or reusing software

Module 1: Introduction to Software Reuse

• What reuse is and what it is not?
• The benefits and limitations for asset reuse
• What artifacts can be reused?
• The difference between application and domain engineering reuse
• The tradeoffs between white-box and black-box reuse
• The critical aspects of a software reuse program
• The difference in State of the Art and State of the Practice in Reuse Management, Reuse Techniques, Initiatives
• The Organizational, Technical, and Economic aspects of Software Reuse

Module 2: Software Reuse Program

• The infrastructure that must be in place for a systematic software reuse program.
• The support services differ for software reuse from general application development environments
• The barriers to establishing a reuse program
• Implementing a reuse program with small steps
• What makes a software asset reusable?
• Acquiring a reusable asset
• The challenge of finding the right separation of components
• The issues that affect the domain engineering life cycle

Module 3: Domain Analysis

• What domain engineering is?
• The activities involved in finding reusable components
• The issues that a domain analysis method must address
• What a domain is, and what abstraction is with respect to domain analysis
• Some of the heuristics used to determine the fixed and variable parts of components

Module 4: Reuse Code

• Three programming paradigms: Procedural or Functional, Logic, Object Oriented
• Mechanisms of Object Oriented programming that enhance reusability
• Overloading and generosity contributes to reusable code
• Subtyping and sub-classing facilitate software reuse

Module 5: Reusable Architectural Frameworks.

• Architectures are objects of reuse
• Architectures lend to reuse
• Develop reusable architectural frameworks
• Java RMI provides the infrastructure to develop reuse frameworks

Module 6: Component Storage and Retrieval

• Introduction to software libraries
• Software libraries play for successful deployment of software reuse
• Characteristics of software libraries
• Issues that arise in the design and deployment of software libraries
• Challenges of integrating components

Module 7: Software Reuse Metrics

• Basic software engineering metrics
• The three parts of component engineering metrics: Concept, Content, Context
• Application reuse metrics
• Domain engineering metrics
• Organizational metrics
• Various major reuse metric and economic models
• Limitations of these models
• Critical ideas behind a metrics program

Module 8: Component-Based Software Engineering (CBSE)

• What is Component-Based Software Development?
• What does component mean in the context of CBSD?
• The “component model” in CBSD
• The technical and business issues associated with CBSD

Module 9: Product Line Engineering

• What is the Product Line Engineering (PLE)?
• Product Line Engineering fits within software reuse
• PLE vs CBSD
• SYNTHESIS, a Product Line Engineering methodology

Module 10: COTS Based Development
