ABSTRACT:
In an apparatus for identifying software components having an object and use-case information related to a model domain in a software component developing system, the object and use-case information is inputted in an input section. A UDA table creation section makes use-relation between an object and a use-case transmitted from the input section into a UDA (Use-case Data Access) table. A clustering engine creates at least one identified component by normalizing affinity values between use-relation factors in a UDA table prepared in the UDA table creation section and by performing a clustering only for a value greater than or equal to a threshold among the normalized affinity values.
