Abstract

Maintaining legacy enterprise information systems is a known necessity in companies. To date, it remains an expensive and time-consuming process, requiring high effort and cost to get small changes implemented. MITRAS seeks to reduce the maintenance cost by providing an automatic maintenance system model based on graph transformations. This article presents Parthenos, a different approach to MITRAS, whose goal is to guarantee the correctness of introduced modifications at a syntax and type semantics level of the source code. Along with that, it proposes an extensible architecture, which allows the most varied types of systems to carry out software maintenance. Parthenos was evaluated through functional tests to evaluate its effectiveness, using measures of precision, recall, and f-measure.
