Modernization of legacy systems is a new research area in the software industry intended to provide support for transforming an existing software system to a new one that satisfies new demands. This chapter analyzes software modernization based on the Architecture Driven Modernization (ADM). In this context, software modernization is supported by metamodels to describe existing systems, discoverers to automatically create models of these systems and, tools to understand and transform complex models created out of existing systems. This chapter provides an overview of the-state-of-the-art in ADM-based software modernization techniques. Taxonomy of different techniques is described. A description of how traditional techniques such as static and dynamic analysis can be integrated with ADM standards is presented. This chapter also analyzes current challenges and strategic directions in software modernization.

Software modernization is a new research area in the software industry that is intended to provide support for transforming an existing software system to a new one that satisfies new demands. Software modernization requires technical frameworks for information integration and tool interoperability that allow managing new platform technologies, design techniques, and processes. To meet these demands, Architecture-Driven Modernization (ADM) has emerged as the new OMG (Object Management Group) initiative for modernization. Reverse engineering techniques play a crucial role in system modernization. This chapter describes the state of the art in the model-driven modernization area, reverse engineering in particular. A framework to reverse engineering models from object-oriented code that distinguishes three different abstraction levels linked to models, metamodels, and formal specification is described. The chapter includes an analysis of technologies that support ADM standards and provides a summary of the principles that can be used to govern current modernization efforts.

Modernization of legacy systems is a new research area in the software industry that is intended to provide support for transforming an existing software system to a new one that satisfies new demands. Software modernization requires technical frameworks for information integration and tool interoperability that allow managing new platform technologies, design techniques, and processes. The new OMG (Object Management Group) initiative for modernization aligned with this requirement is Architecture-Driven Modernization (ADM). Reverse engineering techniques play a crucial role in system modernization. In this chapter, the authors describe the state-of-the-art in the model-driven modernization area, reverse engineering in particular, and discuss about existing tools and future trends. In addition, they describe a framework to reverse engineering models from object-oriented code that distinguishes three different abstraction levels linked to models, metamodels, and formal specifications. As an example, this chapter shows how to reverse engineering use case diagrams from Java code in the ADM context focusing on transformations at metamodel level. The authors validate their approach by using Eclipse Modeling Framework.

Smartphones are at the core of new paradigms such as cloud computing, pervasive computing, and internet of things. Frequently, the development of mobile software requires adaptation of valuable and tested non-mobile software. In this context, most challenges are related to the diversity of platforms on the smartphones market and to the need of systematic and reusable processes with a high degree of automation that reduce time, cost, and risks. To face these challenges, this chapter presents an analysis of non-mobile software modernization through an integration of MDE (model-driven engineering) with cross-platform development. Two approaches are analyzed. One of them is a lightweight process that combines MDA (model-driven architecture) with traditional static and dynamic analysis techniques of reverse engineering. The other approach is based on ADM (architecture-driven modernization) standards. A scenario for the migration of C/C++ or Java software through the multiplatform Haxe language is described.

Element Method

The static and dynamic analysis of slender systems, which in this paper comprise lines and flexible links of manipulators, requires large deformations to be taken into consideration. This paper presents a modification of the rigid finite element method which enables modeling of such systems to include bending, torsional and longitudinal flexibility. In the formulation used, the elements into which the link is divided have seven DOFs. These describe the position of a chosen point, the extension of the element, and its orientation by means of the Euler angles Z[Formula: see text]Y[Formula: see text]X[Formula: see text]. Elements are connected by means of geometrical constraint equations. A compact algorithm for formulating and integrating the equations of motion is given. Models and programs are verified by comparing the results to those obtained by analytical solution and those from the finite element method. Finally, they are used to solve a benchmark problem encountered in nonlinear dynamic analysis of multibody systems.
