DESIGN OF REUSABLE SOFTWARE COMPONENTS: A SUCCESS STORY
Topic: Ada, Reuse
The U.S. Army's Product Manager for the Joint Tactical Area
Communications Systems (PM-JTACS) and the Joint Spectrum Center (JSC) met
with great success in designing reusable software components in Ada.
During the course of the development process, several guidelines were
developed that greatly increased the reusability of the code.
Thirteen organizations within the DoD now use the reuse library for a
wide range of applications. The USAF and Army's Air-Ground-Air
Frequency Engineering System (AGAFES) is one of these programs and it
obtained 66 percent reuse and attending cost savings of close to $1 million.
For further details, contact PM-JTACS at DSN 992-3110 or visit the Reuse
Library home page at <http://reuse.jsc.mil>.

Okay, is there a FAQ? And if not, I'm looking for a solid textual
description or definition of a "component" I can feed to my boss.
(I've been using VBX's and OCX's for years, build a couple of OCX's,
and am prototyping stuff w/ JavaBeans, but I can't get across to him
what serialization, discovery, run-time binding, builder tools, etc.
do for you - or he doesn't believe me...

You are looking for the
comp.lang.ada,comp.sw.components,comp.object,comp.software-eng,comp.edu
FAQ?
Wait! I have it here somewhere...<feeling around on floor>
