Abstract

The problems which occur when a company starts to establish mechanisms to realize software reuse are well known. The goal of the RSB-Project is to overcome these problems through a cooperative approach. This paper presents goals, pitfalls, and the results of the project which is carried out together with several industrial partners.In particular, we explain the concepts and the realization of a cooperative software component information system which is currently available on the Internet. It supports software reuse within a consortium of software producing organizations and specifically addresses the requirements of the industrial partners. Apart from reusable components developed by the project partners, this system also provides information on software components available on the public market.
