• The Working Conference on Reverse Engineering (WCRE) is the premier research conference on the theory and practice of recovering information from existing software and systems. WCRE explores innovative methods of extracting the many kinds of information that can be recovered from software, software engineering documents, and systems artifacts, and to examine innovative ways of using this information in system renovation and program understanding.

• WCRE is truly a working conference, where discussion is emphasized. By tradition, each paper presentation has a strict 20 minute limit. Following each group of papers on a given topic, there is serious and in-depth discussion of the topic area, the work described in the presentations, and the implications for future research. WCRE attendees are not passive observers; we are active participants in discussing and shaping future directions of the reverse engineering and reengineering fields.
