Abstract
This paper discusses the prototype system IRENE which employs concept acquisition techniques in order to retrieve business knowledge from COBOL programs. In contrast with the mainstream of reverse‐engineering techniques, IRENE relies on the availability of semantic (rather than syntactic knowledge), expressed as dependencies and derivations amongst the business entities represented in the program, derived by a process known as domain engineering.
