A Study of Reverse Engineering in Software Modeling

The system design document can provide maintenance workers a quick understanding of the system operation process and review detail which helps current increasingly complicated information quite a lot, especially the in the aspect of the comprehension of original design concept to system. In addition, the system design document of platform independent can even quickly switch the platform for system without designing system again. It largely increases the operation of information system across platform. Besides the source code, system design document is also one of the most important asset; for instance, when the source code is lost, the designer can quickly duplicate a set of system with the same function under a basis of system design document.
Due to the constant revolution of the platform technology to the current software, as well as the prevalent of visualized rapid application development tool, there is no complete design document attached in a set of the developed information system, or the document has been missing. It is necessary to find a way for the source code of system to reversely generate system design document.
The study is based on object-oriented technology and object-oriented model to address a concept that platform independent system design document can be reversely generated from the object-oriented source code and to generalize a set of the reverse modeling method from this study. Last, a implemented case would be carried out and verified by the method mentioned above. Through this method, the maintenance workers could therefore quickly transform codes to system design document and then increase the operation efficiency of system maintenance.
