Abstract :
The case-based approach to software reuse in the ReDSeeDS project is based on similarity of requirement specifications. This paper describes the approach for similarity computation and its application in the ReDSeeDS engine. Similarity is determined by a combined approach which uses methods from information retrieval as well as graph similarity measures.
