This paper is based on a logical extension of our past work in pattern matching tools [22, 24, 25 ] for reverse engineering. We explore two new directions: first, we investigate the need for new and more powerful source code and pattern representations to support a richer set of queries; and second, we develop the concept of automatic generation of pattern matchers for different programming languages starting from a high-level specification of the programming language. A generator will eliminate the need for manually-coded pattern matchers for different programming languages. Preliminary ideas are discussed and a roadmap of research issues is presented.
