Workshop Structure
NCC 2001 is a full-day event, structured around theme-oriented presentations
made by recognized experts in the field. Following each presentation, the
workshop participants will engage in structured discussion. The idea is to
foster the exchange of ideas and information in an informal setting, but with
some boundaries placed on topics and time to ensure that the workshop stays on
schedule.
In keeping with the theme of "Migrating to the Web," NCC 2001
focuses on issues related to reengineering legacy systems for use in an NCC
environment. Of particular interest are holistic techniques for Web-enabling
existing applications that integrate various reengineering aspects (e.g., code,
data, and user interface reengineering) into a "whole system"
modernization process. The workshop is structured around three central issues:
- Decomposing legacy systems to identify logical components representing
essential functionality;
- Developing a new Web-enabled system using these logical components; and
- Deploying the system in an NCC environment.
Participants of NCC 2001 were asked to submit short position papers to help
ensure that all workshop attendees are actively engaged in the exchange of
information, and not just silent witnesses to the event. information, and not
just silent witnesses to the event. However, everyone is welcome to participate
in the workshop during the day. Academics with an interest in legacy system
reengineering, software evolution, and the Web will likely be enticed by the
theme of NCC 2001. Industry professionals with real-world experience in areas
such as Web-enabling legacy systems, securing networked applications, and using
XML for component integration will find NCC 2001 a unique opportunity for an
exchange of experience and ideas with others in the field.
