Structural redocumentation: a case study

Abstract

Most software documentation typically describes the program at the algorithm and data-structure level. For large legacy systems, understanding the system's architecture is more important. The authors propose a method of reverse engineering through redocumentation that promises to extend the useful life of large systems.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
