Abstract

In this paper we present an approach to software design reuse based on Case-Based Adaptation. We show how this approach is integrated in a CASE tool suggesting solutions to the software designer. This approach generates new UML designs based on previous ones, which are stored in a central repository. Two different strategies are described and evaluated experimentally.
