Analysis & Reporting

In addition to targeted queries related to specific enhancement or maintenance projects, we will be exploring a number of possible analysis functions including:

  • Impact Analysis – What code will be impacted by a change to this table? What code will be impacted by a change to this other code?
  • Restructuring Analysis – Natural units of code for possible services in an SOA or to consolidate functionality in a single code unit.
  • Structure Analysis – Overview of a function which is about to be modified.
  • Source for ABL2UML – Turn all of the components and relationships into diagrams.
  • Transformation – Powerful potential base for transformation by bringing together information on entities where it can be used to form the plans for a revised system.

No doubt, other ideas will arise and will be reported on here as they are created. Ideas are always welcome.
