Abstract

A guide to software reuse using the STARS (Software Technology for Adaptable Reliable Systems) Repository. This document contains the IBM Stars Repository Guidebook, STARS Repository User's Guide, and STARS Reusability Guidelines. Each is described below. IBM STARS Repository Guidebook: A guide to the STARS Repository, providing high-level information for all users -- component reusers, component suppliers, and repository administrators. The Guidebook is organized according to the specific roles that users perform when using the system. STARS Repository User's Guide: A guide on how to access and use the STARS Repository. It provides the basic information needed to use the repository software, but it is not a comprehensive guide to the VAX computer, on which the repository is built. STARS Reusability Guidelines.
