Abstract
Identifying service candidates in legacy source code, including a source code analyzer performing structured and unstructured analyses of computer software source code procedures, a repository storing results of the analyses, a target profile analyzer analyzing a target service description of a Service Oriented Architecture and formulating a query therefrom, a search module querying the repository to identify source code elements that match the target service description, and combining any matches within a predefined distance from each other within the source code, a ranking engine ranking the combined matches in accordance with predefined heuristics, and a procedure aggregator aggregating the combined matches by their location in propinquity to the procedures, comparing interface definitions defined for the service description to entry and exit points of the procedures to identify candidate procedures having similar input and output parameters, and producing a ranked list of candidate procedures that map into the target element.
