Legacy Systems refer to outdated computer systems or application software which is still used in many corporations and institutions. Legacy systems persist because of the expense and sometimes it is only way to use their knowhow. Maintenance of these systems is a very challenging part. System documentation is often out-of-date or missing. This paper aims to procedure and methods for reversing of the legacy systems. It is described how to transform legacy procedural systems into an object-oriented architecture. Some described methods were applied to a real instance of a legacy system.
