Reengineering (software)
The reengineering of software was described by Chikofsky and Cross in their 1990 paper, Reverse Engineering and Design Recovery: A Taxonomy, as "the examination and alteration of a system to reconstitute it in a new form". Less formally, reengineering is the modification of a software system that takes place after it has been reverse engineered, generally to add new functionality, or to correct errors.
