Design Recovery

The Design recovery activity can be supported by CASE tools such as Enterprise Architect ⁶. The result of this activity is a set of legacy architectures for each corresponding application. Healthwatcher is only legacy architecture (Figure 3) that was available, as we have no access to the source code of the other legacy applications.
