Abstract

In today's saturated process and product market where time, money and productivity is very crucial, software reuse is considered to be one of the most promising approaches for increasing productivity [1]. A good software reuse process facilitates the increase of productivity, quality, and reliability, and the decrease of costs and implementation time. By re-using existing software, in addition not having to re-implement it, one can avoid downstream costs of maintaining additional code, and if the re-used artifacts has been thoroughly tested and increase the overall quality of the software product. Several industrial and governmental initiatives are underway to increase the reuse of software, involving both adjustments to process, and the adoption of new technologies. Reusability is not always fruitful because some time reusability requires more effort than building new so careful study should be carried out when to reuse and when to build. In this paper effort are made to clear financial evidence of the benefits of reuse. This paper involves an exhaustive study on comparison of economic models of software reusability, their benefits and drawbacks.
