Software reuse and integration has been described as the process of creating software systems
from existing software rather than building software systems from scratch. Whereas reuse solely
deals with the artifacts creation integration focuses on how reusable artifacts interact with
the already existing parts of the specified transformation. Currently most reuse research
focuses on creating and integrating adaptable components at development or at compile time.
However with the emergence of ubiquitous computing reuse technologies that can support
adaptation and reconfiguration of architectures and components at runtime are in demand. This
edited book includes 15 high quality research papers written by experts in information reuse
and integration to cover the most recent advances in the field. These papers are extended
versions of the best papers which were presented at IEEE International Conference on
Information Reuse and Integration and IEEE International Workshop on Formal Methods Integration
which was held in San Francisco in August 2013.
