  • Abstract
    Legacy systems are usually those systems that have stood the test of time and become or remain the core service component of a substantial fraction of a business. Why then should they be a liability? Systems are a mix of hardware and software, sometimes proprietary, often out-dated, and built to earlier styles of design, implementation or operation. Can such systems be changed?
