Research on the Quantifying and Calculating Model of the Software Component Reusability

摘要

Reusability quality directly affects the software quality and application development. The metric of software component reusability has been a hot spot for the research of the CBSD (component-based on software development). The fault of using AHP to measure reusability is that the specific attribute value of reusability and its sub-property cannot be figured out and the purpose of measurement cannot be achieved. To solve this problem, in this paper, with the decomposition model of reusability attribute, a method for quantifying and calculating software component reusability is proposed. In this way, to a certain extent, the calculation of component reusability values would be more intuitive and understandability while given a important basics to improve software quality. And compared with the AHP(The Analytic Hierarchy Process), the experiments show the validity and rationality of this method.
