Abstract

A system for reusing program code from a first completed application in a second under-development application based on identified patterns matching between the types of data accessed by the first and second applications. The system has an information model database, a pattern database, an API and applications which query the information model through the API, resulting in stored raw access data. The raw access data is extracted and patterns are generated based on similarity of the abstracted patterns as between the first and second applications. Application programmers access the pattern database to create new programs and implement prior computer code in the new program based on a pattern match on data accessed by a prior-developed application.
