Answer to Question 1

Enterprises that have been in business for a while normally accumulate a mix of software applications and documents, procedures, rule books, manuals, and so on. As a result, new development is often expected to upgrade, replace, or collaborate with existing applications. In many such cases, the business would ask you to mine legacy applications and documentation for rules and concepts to save time and resources. To discover the business concepts rules, processes, people, objects from legacy applications, you must resort to reverse engineering: observing and analyzing what they do especially to data to discover why they do it.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
