Growth in the computer industry produces a need to convert data and/or programs from one system to another from time to time. While this process has been going on for years, the techniques used to execute this task have been ad hoc and expensive. Very few aids exist on the market today to help this process. Examination into the conversion scenario reveals that the structure of a system to aid conversion should have the following features: (1) ability to extract pertinent information from high level source application programs and source systems environment. (2) interactive facility where users and the conversion aid system can work together to make the decisions. (3) ability to carry out the translation process automatically after directions are given from a high level language. This paper describes the architecture of such a system and gives the motivations which lead to such conclusions.
