Abstract
The development of software systems is intensive person-oriented process. Therefore it is essential to use previous experience and knowledge. The extension of reuse through analogy is analysed in this paper. The proposed grouping of analogical methods, rules, etc., relies on their adaptability to application software development. The emphasis here is on analogue as a criterion to safeguard the desirable properties of application software. Knowledge kinds and mechanisms to enable reuse through analogy are discussed.
