GRANUM - components 1. GRANUM/RE - Re-engineering, re-  mediation, restructuring, removal of old  language constructs, elimination of branch  instructions and so forth. 2. GRANUM/RF -  Refactoring, i.e. fully  automated segregation into small modules  which can be invoked individually (so-  called ”SOA-fication”). This makes it  possible to embed  the functional modules  as services into an ESB (enterprise service  bus). 3. GRANUM/FO - Formatting, beautifying.  improving readability, enforcing coding  standards. 4. GRANUM special components address  subjects like the removal of old generators,  decision tables or embedded macros,  GRANUM - Re-Engineering and Refactoring for COBOL Huge amounts of COBOL - maybe a bit out of shape, but proven and precious GRANUM was developed in the light of many  hundred millions of COBOL lines being used in IT  production worldwide. This code has grown out of shape through years  and years of maintenance and change:  • programs became much too big and often  hard to read  • embedding in a SOA is impossible  • the logic is spoiled by GO TO instructions  • reminiscences of old code generators  should long have been eliminated, but no  one dares to do it  • scope terminators are missing or not  consequently used • a better structuring of the code is highly  advisable, but the risk to do this manually  is much too big  Contact  Jobs © IT Modernisation UG Download GRANUM product flyer. GRANUM modernises COBOL applications with a revolutionary approach GRANUM modernises and restructures COBOL  programs fully automated. It removes old  language constructs and can re-factor into arbitrary single modules of any size. These modules can  then be integrated as services into a SOA.  GRANUM contains several components, which are  closely interacting. GRANUM is also designed to  cooperate with other modernisation rule sets.  Go to GRANUM/RE  Legal
