reverse engineering

In computing, analysing an existing piece of computer hardware or software by finding out what it does and then working out how it does it. Companies perform this process on their own products in order to iron out faults, and on their competitors' products in order to find out how they work. For example, the microchips in the first IBM PCs were reverse engineered by other computer firms to make compatible machines without infringing IBM's copyright.
