A Fuzzy Approach for Successful Reuse Metrics

Software Development has never been a perfect process and software projects have often failed or face the challenges because of cost overrun, poor quality, incomplete assessment of requirements, and delays in schedule. Therefore, the biggest issue of software development management is to improve the development process to avoid or minimize the levels of these pitfalls. That’s why developers create reusable assets that can be used in future projects. Reusability not only decreases costs, it also improves the quality of projects as reusable assets were tested components[1]. The purpose of this research is to identify and provide insight into the critical factors that are helpful in maintaining discipline in agile projects concerning reusability. This study is significant in the sense that the agile methodology has not been considered disciplined, so we have worked on 14 metrics taken from morisio dataset and further reduced them to six affecting reusability the most.
