摘要：Today's software development is defined by continuous evolution of software products. These products are regularly updated during their usage. In most of the cases systems grow inevitably by adding new features or by changing the system architecture due to new technologies or business plans. It is more than a decade; objects oriented paradigm is adopted as the most efficient passage to build flexible software, and promptly supported by industry. Though, the benefits of object oriented paradigm are supported by many, but its usage does not necessarily result in general, adaptable systems. These huge systems are often suffering from improper use of object oriented techniques, like inheritance and the lack of object oriented methods being regulated towards the building of families of systems instead of developing single applications. These growing technologies make the systems more difficult to maintain and improve. So, there is growing demand for reengineering of object-based systems. The main intention of this paper is to discover important research directions in the area of reengineering of object oriented legacy systems, which necessitate further attention in order to build more effective and efficient reengineering technique for these systems. The paper first discusses the state of art in reengineering of legacy system and its need. Paper also discuss the benefits of component based system over object oriented system and later outlines the techniques for reengineering of object oriented legacy system. In this paper we presented statistical analysis based on more than a decade data.
