Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present an approach to facilitate reuse. This approach, which is based on an object oriented design method, describes a way of structuring components and reuse library.Two concepts, domain and theme, are introduced to allow a classification of components by the services that they offer and by application domain. The library itself is organized in three hierarchical levels -general, dedicated and personal-, where the reusable components are stored according to their degree of “interest” (general interest, by application type or particular). So, the library is generic and could cluster various reusable component types (specification components, design components, packages,…).The contributions of this approach in the development of CASE tools are also emphasized.
