A Message from the Chair of the Committee on Reverse Engineering and Reengineering - a discussion of the Reengineering Wiki pages.

An editorial from your newsletter editor talks about some very good software reengineering articles you may not have seen in the December 2001 issue of CrossTalk.

A synopsis article discusses the half-day Workshop on Decompilation Techniques (DECOMP), sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society and co-located with the Working Conference on Reverse Engineering (WCRE). The workshop brought together 20 researchers/developers from academia and industry interested in two main areas: computer security and migration of legacy (assembly) code.

Another synopsis article discusses WCRE 2001 held in Germany last October.

A Message from the Chair of the Committee on Reverse Engineering and Reengineering.

An editorial from your newsletter editor.

The first article entitled Innovation, Software, and Reverse Engineering: Technological and Legal Issues summarizes the intent and results of a 1-day seminar held  at Santa Clara University, California, on the 23rd March 2001.  The intent of the seminar was to have people from the legal and computing communities in one room to discuss issues relating to reverse engineering of software.

The second article entitled Automated Transformation of Legacy Systems discusses the application of a suite of artificial intelligence (AI) technology tools to automatically assess, transform, re-factor or re-engineer, and if desired, web-enable a wide variety of legacy computer programming languages, along with system databases, into modern, platform-independent object oriented C++, JAVA, and XML with CORBA compatibility.
