Master Thesis: Reuse of Personal Software | Spring 2003 | Thesis in PDFesearch concerning optimization of reuse of software assets developed and consumed within large software enterprises is prevalent within academia and industry. Comparatively few research efforts have been devoted to exploring asset reuse among small-scale developers who work in relative isolation, such as students, hobbyists, or consultants. The goal of this thesis is to identify factors affecting successful systematic software asset reuse efforts among the small-scale developer demographic, specifically focusing on the feasibility of introducing a reuse support tool into a personal software process.
