This paper advocates that extracting formal specification semantically consistent to the original legacy system will facilitate further redesign and forward engineering greatly. The three parts of reengineering could be integrated on the basis of a w... Read More about Abstraction: a key notation for reverse engineering in a system re-engineering approach..

Software reengineering is an essential part of software evolution. Two important issues faced by software reengineering techniques are the time involved and the ability to cope with the scale of software systems. Unless these two issues have been add...
