A framework for migrating procedural code to object-oriented platforms
Bibliographic record
Abstract
With the rapid growth of the Internet and pervasive computing activities, the migration of back-end legacy systems to network centric environments has become a focal point for researchers and practitioners alike. To leverage back-end legacy services into Web-enabled environments, this paper proposes an incremental and iterative migration framework where legacy procedural source code is reengineered into an object-oriented platform. The reengineering framework allows for the representation of the legacy source in the form of XML based annotated abstract syntax trees. Consequently, the extraction of an object-oriented model from the original source code is based on the analysis of source code features in the original system that can be used to identify classes, associations, aggregations, and polymorphic patterns in the new target system.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
