Abstract :
A significant problem in reengineering large systems is adapting the user interface to a new environment. Often, drastic changes in the user interface are inevitable, as in migrating a text-based system to a workstation with graphical user interface capabilities. This experience report chronicles a study of user interface migration issues, examining and evaluating current tools and techniques. It also describes a case study under taken to explore the use of knowledge engineering to aid in migrating interfaces across platforms
