Reuse Library Interoperability Group (RIG) develops standards for the interoperation of software reuse libraries. |
RIG is chaired by Jim Moore from MITRE and includes some 20 organizations affiliated with DoD, NASA, NIST, software industry (IBM, Fidelity)and one university (NetLib group at University of Tennessee) |
BIDM offers an object-oriented representation of software repositories in terms of Assets, Elements, Libraries, and Organizations objects. |
Software packages or individual routines are represented by Asset objects. |
Assets are created by Organizations, are composed of Elements (typically files) and are located in Libraries. |
