Abstract
Extracting object-oriented designs from non-object-oriented data-inten sive business programs is an important issue in software re-engineerin g and maintenance, In this paper, an augmented object model for specif ying data-intensive business programs is proposed. Consequently, a met hodology for the recovery of a specification using the proposed model from an existing data-intensive business program is proposed, The spec ification recovered represents an object-oriented design of the progra m. The design is expressed in terms of real-world application objects and operations and can be reused in similar applications.
