Abstract

A system for allowing product managers and software engineers to search for existing software modules that meet desired parameters and to identify opportunities to develop new software modules is provided. When product developer creates a software component they assign combinations of tags to the software component in a predetermined format and structure that describes features of the component such as the entity that would use the component, actions that are performed by the component, objects used by the component, and desired outcomes of the component. These tags are associated with the software component in the system. Later, when a developer has a need or idea for a particular component, the developer uses the system to construct a sentence that describes the features of the component as described above. The system then identifies any existing components that match or are close matches to the described component.
