Abstract :
Database reengineering consists in deriving a new database from a legacy database and adapting associated software components accordingly. This migration process typically involves three main steps, namely schema conversion, data conversion and program conversion. This paper presents a wrapper-based approach to automating the program conversion step. The proposed approach combines program transformations and code generation, which are derived from schema transformations
