A meta-model is proposed in this paper dealing with different concepts involved in reengineering operations. This meta-model, in which both business process reengineering and software reengineering are considered, is accompanied by an approach to analyze and diagnose processes and software components. A prototype has been developed supporting this approach and has been designed on the basis of the proposed reengineering meta-model. These ideas are validated by a case study which is presented in this paper, related to a process in the high education field. The context of this case study is described, then the corresponding instances of the meta-model are presented and some improvement results are exposed.
