Abstract :
Traditional software development processes are designed to deal with the construction of new software systems. We believe the software development methodologies should include from the beginning the possibility of a re-engineering phase. With our work we identify the main characteristics that make software (re)engineering tools useful and usable Developing them in a modular architecture allows for a better integration with the developer´s working habits.
