A realistic software engineering information system that takes into account the relations between input and output information would be a powerful aid in software production. Software processes have been much discussed, but the attention to the information in these processes has not been adequate. A process cannot exist without an information system, implicit or explicit. If the software information is explicitly modeled, a better process with enchanced reuse and reusability will follow.
Keywords: Reuse, information system, software engineering
environments, software production process.
Workshop Goals: Communication, exchange of ideas and new idea creation.
Working Groups: Reuse process models, Reuse maturity models,
Tools and environments, Reuse management and economics
I would like to propose something along the lines of ``Reuse in the software life cycle'' or (perhaps better formulation) ``How to fit reuse in actual software production''. I hope this is what the ``Reuse process models'' working group is about.
