Abstract

The essence of software reuse is the use of engineering knowledge or artefacts from existing software components to build a new system. Software reuse can significantly improve the quality of software products and reduces the overall development cost. Software reuse repository must be designed and developed in such a way that they can easily locate the components based on the requirements of the developers. This work proposes a new methodology for efficient classification and retrieval of multimedia software components based on user requirements by using attribute classification scheme with genetic algorithm. In this intelligent classification we use Genetic algorithm that performs the classification of reusable software components in an intelligent manner and retrieves the components based on the requirements of the developers.

Keywords: Software Reuse, Reuse Repository, Intelligent Classification, Genetic Algorithm
