【 摘 要 】

Software reuse development practices have been proven to benefit software development in terms of a quicker time to market and quality. Although being aware of the benefits, software developers tend to overlook this method due to various reasons. Impacted by the advancement of technology, the software development scenario has been dramatically altered as the popularity of software development organizations hiring third party developers acutely rises. Freelance developers enable software development organizations to obtain high expertise in development specific areas on a project-by-project basis that gives development cost flexibility. However, information regarding freelance developer development practice is found to be limited in the related literature. By applying the systematic literature review approach, this study’s main objective is to develop a conceptual framework to investigate software reuse practices among Malaysian freelance developers. The framework consists of individual characteristics, project characteristics, technological characteristics, software reuse development practices, quality, and achievement goals as constructs. The framework would be a basis for future empirical studies.
