The reuse of well-tested and optimized design objects is an important aspect for decreasing design times, increasing design quality, and improving the predictability of designs. R...
This paper presents a model of estimating the similarity of software artifacts so as to promote their analogical reuse. The model permits comparisons between artifacts developed a...
The construction process is subject to an array of influences, both from internal and external environments, which makes the process performance uncertain and difficult to predict...
