“…The performances of the data flow analysis algorithms for identifying the interfaces of the new programs are satisfactory, also considering that the tool does not need any human interaction. [2] The next work that will involve the toolkit for the next wrapping and incremental translation phases of the method. In fact, each identified object has encapsulated into an object wrapper.…”

With the progress of the software technology, the existing legacy systems are becoming obsolete and unable to satisfy the customer needs and expectations. Most of the legacy systems designed using COBOL, as it is a programming language. On the other hand, today Java widely used programming language for designing systems. The Java is pure object-oriented, where as the COBOL is procedure oriented programming language. The legacy systems designed earlier needs the huge amount of maintenance. The programmers of these legacy systems are now getting old moving into the retirement. After that, for people maintaining legacy systems it will be more difficult because keep up these legacy systems needs expertise in the programming language. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a framework to migrate existing legacy COBOL systems to object-oriented Java platform. The advantages of this migration process are that the upholding of the system running in the different organizations will be easier than the legacy COBOL systems.

The adoption of the Internet technologies favors the diffusion of Web-based applications. However, the development of new applications exploiting the modern interfaces and distribution channels have to face the problems connected with the integration of existing software systems. This aspect often requires the migration of legacy systems toward the Web technologies. They encapsulate a great deal of knowledge and expertise about the application domain and cannot be simply discarded.Many of the migration strategies proposed in the literature assume that the underlying software system is (semi)decomposable where the interface component is separated from the business logic and the data model components. In this case, the interface component can be reimplemented, while the other ones are encapsulated into software wrappers. Unfortunately, legacy systems are very often non-decomposable and alternative solutions are needed. This paper proposes an approach for migrating a non-decomposable software system. The approach consists of redirecting the request of input/output operations to the legacy system by using screen and database proxies. The approach has been applied successfully to Cobol software systems with a character-based user interface.
