Until reuse is better understood, significant reductions in the cost of building large systems will not be possible, and analytical approaches for making good reuse investments are suggested in terms of increasing a quality-of-investment measure, Q, which is simply the ratio of reuse benefits to reuse investments.

An empirical investigation of software reuse showed that programmers, untrained in reuse, cannot accurately assess the worth of reusing software components and do not understand which features contribute most significantly to the cost ofSoftware reuse.
