Reengenharia do sistema de avaliação da aprendizagem discente (SAAD)

Abstract

The tasks of maintaining and evolving legacy software are one of the major challenges of Software Engineering, especially when insufficient documentation is available. Software Reengineering is the examination, study, capture and modification of internal mechanisms or functionality of an existing system to reconstitute it in a new form and with new features, often to take advantage of new and emerging technologies without major changes in functionality and purpose to the system, but adding value to the new version produced. The objective of this work is to demonstrate the application of a reengineering process in a software responsible for managing all logistics involved in the process of defenses of course completion works. The process of improving its maintainability and deploying new requirements would be extremely difficult to implement in legacy software, such as, integrating it with the Moodle API through web services. For this, information about the legacy system was collected and new requirements were analyzed, so as to plan a new modeling and architecture, and to start the development of the new version. The resulting prototype was validated with one of the creators of the original version.
