Reuse of object-oriented requirement specificationsEntity-Relationship Approach — ER '93

Characteristics of object-oriented requirement specifications are considered and a methodological approach for their reuse is presented. According to the design-for-reuse perspective, we present modeling and methodological tools for preparing reusable components to be exploited for designing applications not from scratch, but tailoring and adapting existing components. In particular, we focus on reuse of object behavior specifications. Reusable behavioral components are defined as generic process classes with associated process guideline classes providing suggestions for reuse in a given application
