The paper presents the theoretical framework for the research study conducted on faculty assessment of quality and reusability of learning objects It reviews a) four critical challenges educators face when selecting learning objects: the learner’s cognitive process, levels of interaction, evaluation, and instructional design; b) learning object repositories and learning object evaluation; and c...

Nowadays open-source software communities are thriving. Successful open-source projects are competitive and the amount of source code that is freely available offers great reuse opportunities to software developers. Thus, it is expected that several requirements can be implemented based on open source software reuse. Additionally, design patterns, i.e. well-known solution to common design probl...

In literature, there are metrics for identifying the quality of reusable components but the framework that makes use of these metrics to precisely predict reusability of software components is still need to be worked out. These reusability metrics if identified in the design phase or even in the coding phase can help us to reduce the rework by improving quality of reuse of the software componen...

Abstract Various choices can affect the performance of deep learning models. We conjecture that differences in number contexts for model components during training are critical. generalize this notion by defining reusability prior as follows: forced to function diverse not only due data, augmentation, and regularization choices, but also design itself. focus on aspect introduce a graph-based me...

This paper describes an improvement of the reusability model of the SISAL language. The study of the object oriented paradigm limits leads us to propose several extensions promoting a higher reusability scheme. The paper contains the description of the FOL language and of its translator to SISAL as well as insights in our future work on impure eeects.

The requirement to improve software productivity has promoted the research on software metric technology. There are metrics for identifying the quality of reusable components but the function that makes use of these metrics to find reusability of software components is still not clear. These metrics if identified in the design phase or even in the coding phase can help us to reduce the rework b...

Reusability is the key concept in today’s software development environment. The concept of reusability can be achieved by Generic programming approach. C++ templates help us to develop generic code which results in reusable software modules and also identify effectiveness of this reuse strategy. Many researchers have already developed various reusability metrics [9] [7]. In this paper we emphas...

In the ubiquitous Internet of Things (IoT) environment, reusing objects instead of creating new one has become important in academics and industries. The situation becomes complex due to the availability of a huge number of connected IoT objects, and each individual service creates a new object instead of reusing the existing one to fulfill a requirement. A well-standard mechanism not only impr...

Refactoring is the de-facto practice to optimize software health. While several studies propose refactoring strategies design through applying patterns and removing defects, little known about how developers actually refactor their code improve its reuse. Therefore, we extract, from 1,828 open source projects, a set of refactorings that were intended reusability. We analyze impact reusability o...
