Abstract

This paper shows how the REBOOT project constructed a reusability assessment model, based on a survey of what software engineers consider important for reuse. The main result of this presentation is that software engineers agree on a set of characteristics for a reusable software component. These characteristics can be combined into a factor-criteriametrics assessment model. Since the assessment model represents the views of the software engineers it has a high probability of being accepted in the industry.
