We are interested in any existing taxonomies for hardware and 
software classification. We are hoping to apply this to our
software reuse program. Note that we have access to and have 
reviewed all of the documents/products of the various DOD and Industry 
initiatives (STARS, Asset, CARDS, SPC, SEI). We are also aware of
WAIS and other such mechanisms.

We view the classification problem as not one of computer science, 
but one of library science. Has anyone come up with a general
classification hierarchy for computer hardware/software?
