A value analysis model for measuring software reuse
Mihaela Dînșoreanu, Iosif Ignat · 2009
Software reuse is probably the most elusive promise of OOP but achieving effective reuse requires a significant up-front effort, strict discipline and careful planning while its results are difficult to measure. The lack of clear measurements often hinder a company to measure the degree of success in applying systematic reuse and estimate the organizational gains. The current paper presents an integrated measurement model that allows practitioners to apply familiar project management techniques for measuring software reuse and to include software reuse metrics in the analysis of project performance indicators.
