Abstract

We present a web-based portal site for reverse engine ering software systems called Reportal. Re portal enables authorized users to upload their code to a secure web site and then, through the guide of wizards, browse and analyze their code. Currently the portal services include code analysis, browsing, querying, and design extraction for C, C++, and Java programs. The Reportal services are implemented by several reverse engineering tools that our team has developed over the years. With this work, we aim to assist professional software engineers, educators, and other researchers who need to analyze code. Specifically,we present a technology that provides a simple and easily accessible user interface to a number of reverse engineering tools. More importantly, this technology saves the user from the time and effort required to install, administer, and integrate these tools.
