Rework and Reuse Effects in Software Economy

Software industry supposed to provide software product to their customers at a lower price and right time. Unfortunately, it’s true that the industry can’t deliver the software at lower a price. Lots of reasons are responsible for this high price of the Software. Such as high wages of stakeholders, the size of software, testing costs, implementation cost and one of the most vital reasons is a rework that increases the cost of software. In this research paper, I focused on rework and reuse, its cost & effect on software economy. How to reduce the rework during the software development life cycleSDLC. This research found that a long part of the development duration used for rework. This scenario is not only obtainable in a small software firm but also medium and enterprise software companies. Rework issue is one of the big challenges of the software industry. This research explained the problem in a financial point of view and provided needed suggestions to reduce the rework & increase the reuse based on software engineering body of knowledge. The software industry will be profitable if they can reduce the rework and upsurge the reuse of software

Formalizing Rework in Software Processes

Abstract. This paper indicates how effective software-process programming languages can lead to improved understandings of critical software processes, as well as improved process performance. In this paper we study the commonly mentioned, but seldom defined, rework process. We note that rework is generally understood to be a major software development activity, but note that it is poorly defined and understood. In this paper we use the vehicle of softwareprocess programming to elucidate the nature of this type of process. In doing so we demonstrate that an effective language (i.e. one incorporating appropriate semantic features) can help explain the nature of rework, and also raise hopes that this type of process can be expedited through execution of the defined process. The paper demonstrates the key role played in effective rework definition by such semantic features as procedure invocation, scoping, exception management, and resource management, which are commonly found in programming languages. A more ambitious program of research into the most useful processprogramming language semantic features is then suggested. The goal of this work is improved languages, for improved understandings of software processes, and improved support for software development.
