Abstract

Reusability quality directly affects the software quality and application development. The metric of software component reusability has been a hot spot for the research of the CBSD (component-based on software development). The fault of using AHP to measure reusability is that the specific attribute value of reusability and its sub-property cannot be figured out and the purpose of measurement cannot be achieved. To solve this problem, in this paper, with the decomposition model of reusability attribute, a method for quantifying and calculating software component reusability is proposed. In this way, to a certain extent, the calculation of component reusability values would be more intuitive and understandability while given a important basics to improve software quality. And compared with the AHP(The Analytic Hierarchy Process), the experiments show the validity and rationality of this method.
