Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary As a developer, you may inherit projects built on existing codebases with design patterns, usage assumptions, infrastructure, and tooling from another time and another team. Fortunately, there are ways to breathe new life into legacy projects so you can maintain, improve, and scale them without fighting their limitations. Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications. About the Book Re-Engineering Legacy Software is an experience-driven guide to revitalizing inherited projects. It covers refactoring, quality metrics, toolchain and workflow, continuous integration, infrastructure automation, and organizational culture. You'll learn techniques for introducing dependency injection for code modularity, quantitatively measuring quality, and automating infrastructure. You'll also develop practical processes for deciding whether to rewrite or refactor, organizing teams, and convincing management that quality matters. Core topics include deciphering and modularizing awkward code structures, integrating and automating tests, replacing outdated build systems, and using tools like Vagrant and Ansible for infrastructure automation.

Download or read book Successful Software Reengineering written by Valenti, Salvatore and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2001-07-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Software process reengineering has become highly visible over the past several years. Efforts are being undertaken by organizations of all types and sizes as they attempt to deal with the challenges of quality, complexity and competitiveness. As an emerging technology, the effectiveness and potential impact of process improvement efforts have been debated, but not fully tested or validated. At the very core of this technological evolution is the idea that the quality of a software product is highly dependent on the quality of the process used for its development. Successful Software Reengineering examines the most recent theories, models, approaches and processes involved with the concept of software improvement and reengineering.

Download or read book Handbook of Re Engineering Software Intensive Systems into Software Product Lines written by Roberto E. Lopez-Herrejon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-22 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook distils the wealth of expertise and knowledge from a large community of researchers and industrial practitioners in Software Product Lines (SPLs) gained through extensive and rigorous theoretical, empirical, and applied research. It is a timely compilation of well-established and cutting-edge approaches that can be leveraged by those facing the prevailing and daunting challenge of re-engineering their systems into SPLs. The selection of chapters provides readers with a wide and diverse perspective that reflects the complementary and varied expertise of the chapter authors. This perspective covers the re-engineering processes, from planning to execution. SPLs are families of systems that share common assets, allowing a disciplined software reuse. The adoption of SPL practices has shown to enable significant technical and economic benefits for the companies that employ them. However, successful SPLs rarely start from scratch, but instead, they usually start from a set of existing systems that must undergo well-defined re-engineering processes to unleash new levels of productivity and competitiveness. Practitioners will benefit from the lessons learned by the community, captured in the array of methodological and technological alternatives presented in the chapters of the handbook, and will gain the confidence for undertaking their own re-engineering challenges. Researchers and educators will find a valuable single-entry point to quickly become familiar with the state-of-the-art on the topic and the open research opportunities; including undergraduate, graduate students, and R&D engineers who want to have a comprehensive understanding of techniques in reverse engineering and re-engineering of variability-rich software systems.
Download or read book Automatic Re engineering of Software Using Genetic Programming written by Conor Ryan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Automatic Re-engineering of Software Using Genetic Programming describes the application of Genetic Programming to a real world application area - software re-engineering in general and automatic parallelization specifically. Unlike most uses of Genetic Programming, this book evolves sequences of provable transformations rather than actual programs. It demonstrates that the benefits of this approach are twofold: first, the time required for evaluating a population is drastically reduced, and second, the transformations can subsequently be used to prove that the new program is functionally equivalent to the original. Automatic Re-engineering of Software Using Genetic Programming shows that there are applications where it is more practical to use GP to assist with software engineering rather than to entirely replace it. It also demonstrates how the author isolated aspects of a problem that were particularly suited to GP, and used traditional software engineering techniques in those areas for which they were adequate. Automatic Re-engineering of Software Using Genetic Programming is an excellent resource for researchers in this exciting new field.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An approach to reorganising businesses using software engineering as a guiding paradigm. The author argues that software engineering provides both the necessary analytical expertise as well as the tools to transform process descriptions to support systems. He begins by introducing the necessary concepts, principles and practice before demonstrating how a business can define and construct the information base required. As a result, any manager or technically-minded person will learn here how to implement the reengineering of a business.
Download or read book Model Driven Software Migration A Methodology written by Christian Wagner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-03-10 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, reliable software systems are the basis of any business or company. The continuous further development of those systems is the central component in software evolution. It requires a huge amount of time- man power- as well as financial resources. The challenges are size, seniority and heterogeneity of those software systems. Christian Wagner addresses software evolution: the inherent problems and uncertainties in the process. He presents a model-driven method which leads to a synchronization between source code and design. As a result the model layer will be the central part in further evolution and source code becomes a by-product. For the first time a model-driven procedure for maintenance and migration of software systems is described. The procedure is composed of a model-driven reengineering and a model-driven migration phase. The application and effectiveness of the procedure are confirmed with a reference implementation applied to four exemplary systems.

Download or read book Requirement Elicitation Framework for Re engineering Diagnostic Health Care Information Systems in Kenya written by Rose Okwemba and published by Exceller Books. This book was released on with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Requirements elicitation is the extraction of users’ requirements. This process has been affected by legacy systems which are outdated computer systems that are no longer applicable to current contexts but are being used instead of available upgraded versions. Re-engineering will play an important role in the decision making process, especially the way the data is collected and presented through a computing platform. The study establishes appropriateness of existing Elicitation Techniques, determine appropriate Attributes for re-engineering legacy systems and design a Frame work used during elicitation process.
