Research on Reverse Engineering in Maintenance of Web System
Qingyi Hua · Computer Technology and Development · 2008
Analyses the problems in the maintenance of software,presents the approach of reverse engineering from Web system.This approach uses Web as input to analyse the source code of pages,reversing the link and interaction to construct the deployment and task model,thus it can express useful information clearly for maintainer,and provide a reverse engineering tool developed by the author.Using this method,maintainer can get the information of system without analyzing the source code,and get over the difficulty of lack for design documents.Finally,gives an example of reverse engineering for a Web site to illustrate this method.
