design recovery
<process> A subtask of reverse engineering in which domain knowledge,
external information, and deduction of fuzzy reasoning are added to the
observations of the subject system to identify meaningful higher level
abstractions beyond those obtained directly by examining the system itself.
In other words, design recovery aims to work out what a system or component was
designed to do rather than just examining its subcomponents and their
interrelationships.
