Abstract
In contrast to other kinds of libraries, software libraries need to be conceptually organized. When
looking for a component, the main concern of users is the functionality of the desired component;
implementation details are secondary. Software reuse would be enhanced with conceptually
organized large libraries of software components. In this paper, we present GURU, a tool that allows
automatical building of such large software libraries from documented software components. We
focus here on GURU's indexing component which extracts conceptual attributes from natural
language documentation. This indexing method is based on words' co-occurrences. It first uses
EXTRACT, a co-occurrence knowledge compiler for extracting potential attributes from textual
documents. Conceptually relevant collocations are then selected according to their resolving power,
which scales down the noise due to context words. This fully automated indexing tool thus goes
further than keyword-based tools in the understanding of a document without the brittleness of
knowledge based tools. The indexing component of GURU is fully implemented, and some results
are given in the paper.
