Loose couplingIn computing and systems design, a loosely coupled system is one in which components are weakly associated (have breakable relationships) with each other, and thus changes in one component least affect existence or performance of another component. in which each of its components has, or makes use of, little or no knowledge of the definitions of other separate components. Subareas include the coupling of classes, interfaces, data, and services. Loose coupling is the opposite of tight coupling.
AntipatternEn génie logiciel, les anti-patrons ou antipatterns sont des erreurs courantes de conception des logiciels. Leur nom vient du fait que ces erreurs sont apparues dès les phases de conception du logiciel, notamment par l'absence ou la mauvaise utilisation de patrons de conception, appelés design pattern en anglais. Les anti-patrons se caractérisent souvent par une lenteur excessive du logiciel, des coûts de réalisation ou de maintenance élevés, des comportements anormaux et la présence de bugs.
ReusabilityIn computer science and software engineering, reusability is the use of existing assets in some form within the software product development process; these assets are products and by-products of the software development life cycle and include code, software components, test suites, designs and documentation. The opposite concept of reusability is leverage, which modifies existing assets as needed to meet specific system requirements. Because reuse implies the creation of a , it is preferred over leverage.
