  • Abstract
    The paper evaluates the suitability of reuse candidates identified through the dominance relation approach and their ability to support the process of software evolution. The paper provides an overview of the dominance relation and how it is used to identify the reusable candidates. The reuse candidates that are identified by this approach are then evaluated to see how they stand up to the process of software evolution. A number of case studies, and the results of the object´s evolution, are described
