Abstract
This paper discusses the importance of developing reusable software component libraries for Department of Defense (DoD) military software systems, as well as a few of the main reasons why current approaches are not working. A working definition of software resuability is estabilished and the major goals of reuse are examined. The emphasis of the paper is on the necessary characteristics of a reusable software component as well as the compilation and utilization of reusable component libraries. The roles of UNIX™, Ada®, and C in the development of reusable components are examined. Many of the problems facing the development of adaptable, reusable software components are outlined as well as some possible solutions to these problems. Conclusions are drawn concerning the critical need for these software characteristics in DoD military systems of the future.
