Abstract :
Reverse architecting is a flavour of reverse engineering that concerns the extraction of software architecture models from the system implementation. This paper presents experience in recovering the architecture of an embedded software system developed in Nokia. It outlines the reverse architecting approach, discusses its application on the case study and presents usage scenarios of the extracted information
