ABSTRACT

Reverse Engineering is a process of diffusion of technologies that plays an important role for incremental change leading to sustained technological development. Reverse engineering can be considered as an essential phase for a developing country like Bangladesh for triggering technological revolution and can act as forward and backward linkage in the process. This paper hinges upon the conceptual setting. momentousness of Reverse Engineering for the country's industrial growth and the present status of Reverse Engineering practices in the country. Pragmatic solutions and required organizational set up are proposed in the paper against various hindrances and problems prevailing in the country in the process of following Reverse Engineering technique. Observations made in the paper are based on a sample survey undertaken on light engineering industries and three national workshops on 'Reverse Engineering' organized recently
