Benoit Verhaeghe Ph.D. thesis defense : “Incremental Approach for Application GUI Migration using Metamodel”
We are glad to announce the Ph.D. thesis defense of Benoit Verhaeghe. Benoit mainly worked on method and tools to semi-automatically migrate front-end frameworks. His work particularly focused on the migration Google Web Toolkit to Angular environement. The defense will take place in Lille on October 21st, 2021. Resume Developers use GUI frameworks to design
Migrating internationalization files
During my Ph.D. migration project, I consider the migration of several GUI aspects: Visual, Behavioral and Business. These elements are the main ones. When perfectly considered, you can migrate the front-end of any application. But, we are missing some other stuff 😄 For example, how do you migrate i18N files? In this post, I’ll present how to build a simple migration tool to migrate I18N files from .properties (used by Java)

Representing front-end of Applications in a nutshell
For the last 4 years, I worked with the migration team of the DRIT on the Graphical User Interface (GUI) migration problem. We published several papers and successfully migrated applications based on different GUI frameworks. Today, we’ll see together how we perform such a great project. In short, I’ll present you the Model-Driven Engineering and

How to use VSCode and Moose to analyze Java projects?
VSCode is an amazing editing tool. Thanks to its extensions, one can develop using many programming languages. However, what about analyzing a software system using VSCode? In this article, we will show you how to use VSCode with Moose to analyze Java code. We use Christopher Fuhrman’s post as an example. Although we can perform

Testing the migration of Graphical User Interfaces
Technologies and frameworks are not immortal, it’s a fact. For a software editor like us, it is regularly a necessity to migrate a framework to another. When you consider, large software like e-sedit for example, migrating the entire software in one shot is almost impossible. Many companies are migrating their software systems. And so, we

Automatic software migration: from GWT to Angular
Support for the automation of Web application interface migration: the case of GWT to Angular During the evolution of an application, it is sometimes necessary to migrate its implementation to a different programming language and/or Graphical User Interface (GUI) framework. Web GUI frameworks in particular evolve at a fast pace. For example, in 2018 there
