Abstract :
This paper reports on the offloading of software maintenance from the mainframe to a PC-based maintenance workbench at the Union Bank of Switzerland. The objective of the offloading activity was to increase maintenance productivity by providing automated aids for analyzing, editing, reengineering, testing and reverse engineering JSP/COBOL host programs under a graphical interface. The maintenance workbench was completed at the end of 1994 and is now undergoing pilot testing
