Georgia Institute of Technology The reverse engineer uses Dowser tools to develop program models with code analysistools and collect application-domain models with domain analysis tools. Support tools, Georgia Institute of TechnologyDowser features include: Navigation of source code and documents using domain vocabulary Source code analysis tools Multiple views of both application-domain knowledge and code models Document analysis tools Architectural model definition Pattern-based searching for domain and code featuresMORALEDowser supports the Mission Oriented Architectural Legacy Evolution (MORALE) reengineeringprocess. The goal of the MORALE project is to facilitate the evolution of legacy softwaresystems. Facilitation takes the form of improved quality by requirements validation, reduced riskvia architectural evaluation and assessment, and increased productivity from maintenance andaccess to design rationale and from high level reuse of architectural components.Dowser Sample ScreensThe screen shot on the left shows the call-graph tool. The call-graph tool queries a relationaldatabase for caller-called information about a program and uses the information returned fromthe database to construct a call graph.The screen shot on the right shows a UML editing and browsing tool. The analyst mayconstruct hypothetical system architectures from derived domain and program information,linking each architectural feature back to the information from which it was derived. AvailabilityThe Dowser is in Beta release. The Dowser distributionincludes documentation and source code. It can bedownloaded from the MORALE tools page athttp://www.cc.gatech.edu/morale/tools. The Dowseranalyzes C or FORTRAN code compiled with SolarisSystem Requirements SUN Solaris 2.5 ( and its compiler) Tcl 8.0 and Tk 8.0 MySQL relational database.
