Abstract
Information systems executives within Department of Defense (DoD) activities are
being challenged to develop innovative ways in which information technology can
contribute to the streamlining of DoD organizations. Software reuse is a key strategy in
developing information systems that will meet the future needs of DoD organizations.
This thesis examines the concepts, and issues relating to the creation of a clearinghouse
to facilitate and promote software reuse. Specifically it studies the Defense Software
Repository System (DSRS), a DoD-wide version of the Army Reusable Ada Products for
Information Systems Development (RAPID) effort.
