RESUMO

The recovery of the documentation of the structure of a legacy system aims at supporting its understanding and maintenance. Based on diagrams that describe the structure of the system as it was implemented, it is easier to understand the system and analyze the impact changes may have. This dissertation introduces a meta-tool that uses metadata for its instantiation aiming at specific representations. An experimental study on the recovery of models of a legacy system implemented in PL/SQL was conducted to enable the evaluation of the meta-tool and the reverse engineering process that it supports.
