Abstract. The article describes the method of redocumentation of legacy software intended for using insoftware reengineering. Documents that are created in redocumentation should meet the requirements ofsoftware development technology to be used in forward engineering. Software document models located atdifferent abstract levels are proposed: model of software document, meta-model of the document of thedevelopment technology, model of the development technology document. The models created are used in themethod implementation based on the model-driven approach. According to this approach, redocumentationis considered to be the process of creating a set of legacy software documents by transformation models ofdocuments, the documents contents being formed on the basis of legacy software views set.Keywords: legacy software, model-driven approach, model of document, redocumentation.
