The Object Flow Graph -- Class Diagram -- Object Diagram -- Interaction Diagrams -- State Diagrams -- Package Diagram -- Conclusions.In software evolution and maintenance, the ultimate, most reliable description of a system is its source code. Reverse engineering aims at extracting abstract, goal-oriented views from the code, to summarize relevant properties of program computations. Reverse Eng…
