Reengineering is the process of examination, understanding, and alteration of a system with the intent of implementing the system in a new form. Many approaches for design recovery or reverse engineering have been suggested, most with some type of support tool. Since a project’s time constraints may prohibit use of sophisticated techniques and/or tools due to the learning curves associated with...

The objective of this paper is to describe our experience in rapidly reengineering legacy software through the application of Java reflection in a research compiler. This process would be of value to language evolution and development e↵orts, in general, and reengineering e↵orts, in particular. It was performed in the course of a software project that has slowly evolved from a simple language t...

Tool support is recognised as a key issue in the reengineering of large scale object-oriented systems. However, due to the heterogeneity in today’s object-oriented programming languages, it is hard to reuse reengineering tools across legacy systems. This paper proposes a language independent exchange model, so that tools may perform their tasks independent of the underlying programming language...

This paper presents two major transformation initiatives in many industries today, and it tries to examine them from a reengineering perspective. Core System Transformation deals with analyzing the existing core software system of an enterprise in order to migrate it into a renewed and more flexible system. Big Data addresses the Enterprise Architecture by introducing new, data-centric capabili...

Abstract The reengineering of systems into a microservice-based architecture can be seen as an implementation service-oriented (SOA). However, the deployment SOA enterprise is challenging task, it may involve modernization mission-critical with high technical debt and maintenance costs. To this end, process required to provide appropriate set steps techniques that minimize risks at same time en...

This paper presents a process model of how an IT offshore outsourcing project in a German-Indian context evolved over time. It applies project control theory as the theoretical basis for analysis. The findings from the underlying case study contribute to the domain knowledge of IT project management and IT offshoring by providing insights into the effects of different types of control modes on ...

Software can be considered an organizations asset, because it evolves and incorporates value as business rules change. So, it is important that good techniques be used in software development, in order to assure that its lifecyle is extended. One of these techniques is Design Rationale, which documents all the project decisions made during software development in order to ease revision, mainten...
