Abstract :
The main goal of the paper is to present the SpecView tool, stressing its usefulness for the reengineering of system specifications. It describes how the SpecView can be applied in situations wherein the system has to be reengineered to the (almost) same requirements, but the company is interested in specifying and documenting the requirements via a different method or technique. The characteristics of the tool are described and the results obtained in the reengineering of a traffic monitoring/light controlling system are presented
