See full text

A category is determined of a task being planned at a given time. A collection of assets is identified, the collection having been used in a similar task at a past time. An experience report associated with an asset in the collection is extracted into a set of encapsulated experience reports, where the experience report was generated from the similar task at the past time. A degree of usability is computed corresponding to the collection, the collection being usable in the category of the task up to the degree of usability. According to the degree of usability of the collection, the collection is positioned in a sorted list of reusable assets. A reusable asset is selected from the sorted list for use in the task.
