Abstract

Software redesign [1] involves the thorough evaluation, analysis, and modification of an existing software system to transform it into a new form, followed by the implementation of the new form. The goal of software redesign is to provide more robust, scalable, fault tolerant, efficient software while preserving its basic functionalities. While the re-development process is tedious and expensive, it is compensated by improvement in software performance, reduction in maintenance efforts and ease of troubleshooting problems.
