Method and system of business rule extraction from existing applications for integration into new applications

摘要

A method of extracting and transforming a business rule which is a self contained section of legacy code focused on the computation of specific business policy includes identifying the business rule. Thereafter, the business rule code is located in the existing program and extracted in human readable code form. New code is generated for a new application for containing the business rule therein, and the new code is integrated into the new application. A system for extracting and transforming such business rules from existing programs such as legacy applications to a new application includes various components for achieving the various noted steps.
