The proliferation of software-as-a-service applications from "dotcom" players is raising expectations that other industries will make their critical desktop and mainframe software available as web-enabled software-as-a-service and mobile "apps". However, manually re-engineering legacy software is notoriously costly and frequently unsuccessful. This project will make it easier and quicker to turn stand-alone programs into online services by automating much of the process. Specifically, it will develop tools: for analysing program code to identify points to implement service interfaces; for displaying existing and new code dependencies visually; and, to help design and implement new software layers that link legacy services to the web.

“网络公司”的软件即服务应用程序的激增提高了人们的期望，即其他行业将使其关键的桌面和大型机软件作为网络软件即服务和移动的“应用程序”提供。然而，手动重新设计遗留软件是众所周知的昂贵和经常不成功。这个项目将使它更容易和更快地把独立的程序变成在线服务，通过自动化的大部分过程。具体而言，它将开发工具：用于分析程序代码以确定实现服务接口的点;用于直观地显示现有和新的代码依赖关系;以及帮助设计和实现将传统服务链接到Web的新软件层。
