At the moment, organizations are used to transforming in a continuous way and one of the main changes is technology; it is needed to develop new systems that help old systems to evolve. The change brings with it an intrinsic study and reuse of databases, its design must be assumed by software developers, they need to study old data base designs because they are focal points for the construction and design of new systems. This report proposes a semi-automatic database design methodology for reuse. The methodology named ReTARI is structured in five steps: Exploration of existing databases structures, Transformation, Storing, Recovering and Integration. ReTARI proposes the use of reuse techniques on databases structures in order to reuse them in the construction of new software systems. In consequence, the final goal of ReTARI is to improve the productivity and quality of new databases designs and as a result to improve all the software development process.
