Database reverse engineering in general has only been used to recover the conceptual schema employed during its construction. To the best of our knowledge, none of this work has made use of that static structure to perform a deep analysis to infer functionality, or in other words, services over data that could be offered via Web services. Our work goes beyond the discovery of functionality, generating Web service-based applications to allow the remote access and management of legacy databases

Evolving software design is a critical activity for many reasons: inadequate documentation, loss of strategic knowledge due to personnel's turnover, intrinsic complexity of software design. As a consequence, performances in the evolution tasks may deteriorate. Some experiments demonstrate that pair programming is able to reduce the time spent for accomplishing the tasks while increasing the overall work quality. Pair programming is usually applied to coding; the term 'pair designing' refers to applying the practice of working in pairs to the design phase. Because of the asymmetry existing between coding and designing, pair designing could not replicate all the benefits of pair programming. This paper discusses a controlled experiment for understanding which are the effects of pair designing when evolving software design

Legacy programs, i. e. programs which have been developed with an outdated technology make-up for the vast majority of programs in many user application environments. It is these programs which actually run the information systems of the business world. Moving to a new technology such as service oriented architecture is impossible without taking these programs along. This contribution presents a tool supported method for achieving that goal. Legacy code is wrapped behind an XML shell which allows individual functions within the programs, to be offered as Web services to any external user. By means of this wrapping technology, a significant part of the company software assets can be preserved within the framework of a service oriented architecture

Automated formatting is an important technique for the software maintainer. It is either applied separately to improve the readability of source code, or as part of a source code transformation tool chain. In this paper we report on the application of generic tools for constructing formatters. In an industrial setting, automated formatters need to be tailored to the requirements of the customer. The (legacy) programming language or dialect and the corporate formatting conventions are specific and non-negotiable. Can generic formatting tools deal with such unexpected requirements? Driven by an industrial case of nearly 80 thousand lines of COBOL code, several limitations in existing formatting technology have been addressed. We improved its flexibility by replacing a generative phase by a generic tool, and we added a little expressiveness to the formatting back end. Most importantly, we employed a multi-stage formatting framework that can cope with any kind of formatting convention using more computational power

In this paper, we describe a PhD project in which a method is devised to select a middleware platform for enterprise application integration (EAI). The method uses a taxonomy of middleware platforms that is based on the architectural styles that are induced by the middleware platforms. The focus in the selection process is on extra-functional properties of the systems based on the different styles rather than functional or data issues
