Abstract

The essence of reuse is using a component which already exists to construct another one. We create reusable components, we reuse them in many products, and we benefit from the improvement of software production processes and from better quality of software products. It is evident that reuse is an inevitable activity. It has always been a part of most user's and developer's lives. It is important to make this issue conscious activity. In the report we describe a repository designed as a student project supervised by the authors of this article. We take here an attempt to resolve some problems connected with introducing reuse as a new technology in the software production process.

Key words: reuse, component, asset, design, framework, design pattern
