Previous issue date: 2008 / Software Reuse has been considered a key concept to increase the quality and
productivity of the software development by the reuse of existing artifacts,
avoiding build new ones from scratch. However, In order to obtain effective
benefits from the software reuse is necessary a set of complementary resources
such as: education, active management support and the introduction of
appropriate process and tools.
In fact, resources that provide mechanism to ease the access of reusable
components, such as search and retrieval tools, appear as potential instruments
in favor of reuse programs adoption in the organizations. One of the challenges
of the search and retrieval tools is how to make that existing components
returned have a significant relevance.
In this sense, the use of the faceted approach rises as a suitable
alternative. This approach proposes the creation of a vocabulary supported by
attributes, dividing the components into group of classes based on pre-defined
keywords, increasing the level of precision and providing a more flexible
classification.
Thus, this work presents an extension of search and retrieval tool of
reusable components, source code in particular, using the faceted classification
approach. In addition, also was developed an auxiliary tool to aid the Domain
expert to perform his activities using this approach. Finally, an experimental
study evaluates the proposed solution
