Software engineering is undergoing a fundamental change. The new paradigm - systematic reuse - shifts from viewing software engineering as a discipline concerned with the construction of single systems to viewing it as concerned primarily with constructing related systems that share common parts and vary in certain regular and identifiable ways.
This volume contains some of the latest and best research by many noteworthy authors in this field, including a keynote address by Jim Neighbors titled, An Assessment of Reuse Technology After Ten Years.
Proceedings of the November 1994 conference, presenting the keynote address, papers, and panels reflecting the paradigm shift in software engineering toward systematic reuse. Topics covered include reuse tools and retrieval methods, industry reuse experiences, reuse environments and support tools, implementation challenges, domain models, reuse in Asia, object-oriented reuse, and the conflict in software architecture and reuse. Includes subject and author indexes. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
