(1) A process of documenting the functions and behaviors of a device or system by analysis and test.
(2) The reverse engineering process applied to a product, service or enterprise consists of performing a bottom up approach from physical aspects and properties to functional ones then to identify its characteristics as requirements.
(3) Reverse engineering is the process of discovering the technological principles of a device, object, or system through analysis of its structure, function, and operation. It often involves taking something (e.g., a mechanical device, electronic component, software program, or biological, chemical, or organic matter) apart and analyzing its workings in detail to be used in maintenance, or to try to make a new device or program that does the same thing without using or simply duplicating (without understanding) the original.
