Assessment of Reusability Levels on Domain-Specific Components Using Heuristic Function

摘要

Process reuse has noticeable role in the software component reuse, increasing the prominence in enterprise software development. The research gap identified from the related work is to identify reusable components from the legacy system. In order to fill this research gap, a methodology to assess the reusability of components has been proposed using a heuristic function. The proposed methodology is realized and implemented using three domain applications for the assessment of reusability levels. The heuristic function hampers the non-reusable components from the assessed reusability levels and helps to identify the reusable components from the legacy systems.
