Abstract :
After developing several workbenches for reverse engineering various assembly languages, we developed a portable assembly language reverse engineering environment (PARE). The individual workbenches and the portable version are described. The Language Independent Method (LIM) of programming used to develop the portable workbench is discussed, and issues specific to processing assembly languages as opposed to a third generation language are addressed
