....are satisfied with the neural network or not. For example, the data in the current COCOMO II database says that developing for reuse causes a decrease in the amount of effort it takes to develop the software product. This is in contradiction to both theory and other data sources [Poulin, 1997, Reifer, 1997] that if you re developing for future reuse more effort is expended in making the components more independent of other components.

....anew; if this condition is satisfied, the initial cost is gradually recouped over time. Consequently, before committing resources, management need to see the financial case for reuse the projected benefits of reuse investments in a way in which they can understand [Poulin and Caruso, 1993] [Reifer, 1997, ch.6] Economic models of reuse can help make decisions concerning reuse investment. These decisions include whether or not to invest in reuse, whether to prefer one type of reuse over another, and whether to disregard reuse and invest in something else. The models attempt to capture reuse ....

....illustrate the model by presenting some of the typical properties that describe the combination. We also show how the model can be used in user interface design. 1 Introduction There is a wide consensus that software reuse enables significant software productivity, quality, and cost improvement [8, 11, 9]. However, some reuse obstacles have not allowed software developers to take full advantage of the reuse pay offs. These obstacles include the lack of methodological support for reuse. Most of the software methodologies do not include reuse [9] There is, therefore, a need for explicit definitions ....
