The article discusses the concept of software reuse, which involves creating new software systems from existing software components. Efficient software reuse can boost productivity and value for organizations. Despite its potential benefits, software reuse has not been widely adopted in the software engineering industry. The paper explores the idea of software reuse and its challenges, linking reusability to object-oriented programming and agile development. The key finding is that reusability in software engineering involves combining different components and artifacts to create new software systems.
