Abstract
An existing use case is associated with a program code. The program code is executed when a portion of the existing use case is executed. The program code is analyzed to identify a reference made by at least one of an input and an output of the program code, referencing an existing data model, which participates in a migration activity and results in a new data model. The reference is modified according to a data mapping to form a modified reference, the data mapping describing a manner of changing a representation of data from a representation in the existing data model to a representation in the new data model, the modified reference referencing the representation of the data in the new data model. The existing use case is modified to use the modified reference relative to the program code, the modifying resulting in a migrated use case.
