Abstract: The widespread use of computer technology over several decades has resulted in some large, complex systems that have evolved to a state where they significantly resist further modification and evolution. Although these Legacy Information Systems pose considerable problems (brittleness, inflexibility, isolation, non-extensibility, lack of openness, etc.), they may also be mission-critical: if one of these systems stops working the business may grind to a halt. Thus for many organisations,... (Update)
