This paper describes a Generalized Reuse Framework for systems development that consists of two interrelated and interacting processes – Development with Reuse (DWR) and Development for Reuse (DFR) – and a parametric cost estimating relationship defined for the framework in an extended form of COSYSMO, a systems engineering cost estimating model. It also discusses the Delphi process undertook to derive the model coefficients or the quantitative weights for the defined reuse categories. The framework, along with the quantitative estimating model, can be directly applied, in more ways than one, to planning, evaluating and managing reuse for system development efforts.
