Avramenko E. The Method and Facilities of Legacy Software Redocumentation

The dissertation is devoted to development of method and software of legacy software redocumentation. Redocumentation is used during the reengineering of legacy software, when information about it is lost, incomplete, incorrect or unstructured. The method of redocumentation is offered, essence of which consists in creation of documents in accordance with the requirements of a development technology, chosen for the forward engineering, forming content of documents with the use of results of the reverse engineering. A method is realized on the basis of model-driven development. The models of document are built by the levels of general conception of software document, requirements of development technologies, and requirements to the certain document of the chosen technology. The proper transformations of the given models which are managed the chosen development technology and a phase of life cycle are developed.Architecture of software that realized of the offered method is developed and tested.
