CA 2451523

In general, techniques are described that facilitate the reuse of software assets within an enterprise. A software asset, as used herein, refers to a set of one or more related artifacts that have been created or harvested for the purpose of applying that asset repeatedly in subsequent development environments. A system, for example, is described that includes a repository (4A) to store artifacts, and an asset source (12A) to generate a software asset based on the artifacts. The system further includes an asset management system (6) to receive the software asset from the asset source (12A) and store the software asset within an asset library (36). The system may furthfer include a model (37) having one or more elements, and an asset retrieval module (42) to selectively retrieve a subset of the software assets from the asset library (36) based on input from a user identifying one or more of the elements.

L'invention concerne, en général, des techniques facilitant la réutilisation de biens logiciels au sein d'une entreprise (figure 2). On entend par biens logiciels un ensemble d'un ou plusieurs artefacts ayant été créés ou recueillis à des fins d'application répétée dans des environnements de développements successifs. On prévoit, par exemple, un système comportant un référentiel de données (4A) permettant de stocker des artefacts ainsi qu'une source de biens (12A) permettant de générer un bien logiciel d'après les artefacts. Le système comporte en outre un système de gestion des biens (6) permettant de recevoir le bien logiciel en provenance de la source de biens (12A) et de stocker le bien logiciel dans une banque de biens (36). Le système comporte finalement un modèle (37) ayant un ou plusieurs éléments et un module de récupération de biens (42) permettant de récupérer par sélection un sous-ensemble des biens logiciels provenant de la banque de biens (33) d'après la saisie d'un utilisateur identifiant un ou plusieurs des éléments.
