摘要：The present research estimates the efficacy of a legacy program and the areas of its development. The research also intends to put forward as to what extent reengineering of a legacy program has to be done on the basis of the estimation approach. The study has tried to outline the current issues and trends in reengineering of a legacy program from various perspectives. An all-inclusive literature review reveals that a lot of work has already been piled up with legacy system estimation and the reengineering domain, yet the basic assumptions of Complexity, Quality and Effort have not been worked out collectively. Hence the present research underlines this very maxim and studies the reengineering of a legacy program on the paradigms of Quality, Complexity, and Effort Estimation collectively. The findings put forward an equation and reengineering scale which would be highly compatible with present technology for the feasibility of an effective reengineering.
