Reengineering software

the long version

Software development is much cheaper and faster when existing programming can be incorporated into the new design. This book shows how to organize a library for easy retrieval, retrieve exactly what is needed quickly and efficiently, and tailor assets retrieved to the new product specifications. Procedures and guidelines are presented within a conceptual framework that emphasizes corporate issues and important standards germane to reengineering. Tools and real-life case studies clearly demonstrate how the tools and methodologies work.
