Abstract
Reuse of high confidence subsystems depends on their appropriate modelling and documentation. This paper discusses the different aspects that have to be considered when modelling a system and its subsystems. We propose a concrete artefact model for integrated reuse from requirements to technical architecture, which satisfies documentation demands with respect to functionality and the context assumed by the subsystem. Based on the artefact model, we describe the steps for conformity and compatibility checking at the development stage of subsystem integration and/or reuse.
