Abstract

In previous papers we have proposed the integration of content-based document retrieval facilities into the repository underlying a software engineering environment. In the present paper we describe the application of these facilities in typical application areas, such as searching reusable components or identifying project dependencies. Furthermore we describe the integration of the facilities into a concrete software engineering environment.
