Tandem Screen DefinitionTandem Screens definitions are typically defined in external files. Tandem COBOL screens tend to be used within Conversational programs, designed for a "client-server" type deployment. SoftwareMining converts such Conversational applications to a Application-Server architecture. The screen definitions are tranlated to XML/XSLT architecture which works with an Web-Server, to produce HTML screens at run-time. Although in HTML, The translated screens would still have a "green-screen" look and feel. As a part of an application modernization project, many sites redesign the screens to benefit from a new look and feel. |

Julian Date/Time handlingTandom provides specific Date Time handling routines which deal with Julian Date format. E.g ENTER TAL "JULIANTIMESTAMP" ENTER TAL "CONVERTTIMESTAMP" ENTER TAL "INTERPRETTIMESTAMP"For performance reasons these are best translated to Java/C# default date-time handling. |

Embedded SQLEmbedded SQL can be used for access to databases. The SQL embedded within the programs can be externalized - to ease future migration between datebases. |
The Migration of COBOL applications to Java or C# involves:
