Abstract

Many methods for representing software components for reuse have been proposed. These include traditional library and information science methods, knowledge based methods, and hypertext. There has been no empirical evaluation of these methods, and consequently there is no data about their relative costs and effectiveness. Proteus is an experimental reuse library system that will be used to help gather such data. Reuse library systems are usually tied to one method---Proteus supports multiple methods.
