Reengineering Technical Services Processes

Reengineering and processes

In this survey we look at two classes of reengineering, of software systems and of organizations. The latter is known as business reengineering. The purpose of reengineering is to improve the structure of a software system or organization by use of an engineering approach. Part of the survey is therefore a listing of engineering principles. An important principle is that there be well planned p...

Semantic reengineering of business processes

This paper discusses transforming ontological models into non-ontological models of business processes, when the process of articulating different data models is known as reengineering domains. As a crucial factor in achieving interoperability and semantic reengineering of the domains with the different levels of semantic representation (expressiveness), we point out the role of foundational on...

Towards Generic Services for Software Reengineering

Towards reengineering web applications to web services

Web services technology and service-oriented architectures are rapidly developing and widely supported. However, it is fairly difficult for existing web applications to expose functionality as services in a service-oriented architecture, because when web applications were built, they served as monolithic systems. This paper describes a framework called WA2WS, which can be used for constructing ...

Removing Energy Code Smells with Reengineering Services

Due to the increasing consumer adoption of mobile devices, like smart phones and tablet PCs, saving energy is becoming more and more important. Users desire more functionality and longer battery cycles. While modern mobile computing devices offer hardware optimized for low energy consumption, applications often do not make proper use of energy-saving capabilities. This paper proposes detecting ...
