VSM LegacyForward Suite


Powerful Tools for Application Modernization.

Transform and future-proof your clients' legacy applications with the VSM LegacyForward Suite. Our suite of tools empowers consultants to secure, simplify, streamline, and optimize systems with unprecedented performance gains.

By using the patented Coherent Object System Architecture (COSA), each tool in the suite reduces complexity, lowers energy consumption, and enhances application speed, allowing consultants to deliver more secure and maintainable solutions.

The VSM LegacyForward Suite has three primary tools used to modernize your code:

  • ScavEng - Automated code analysis and decomposition for fast modernization.
  • AnyView Modeling - Switch between various views of your code for a more comprehensive understanding.
  • Dtangle - Automatically converts decomposed code into clean, readable, and efficient output.

VSM LegacyForward Code Conversion Process

  • VSM ScavEng analyzes your legacy code to identify key decision points like loops and conditional statements. It then captures the overall logic and structure, creating a streamlined file that can be easily viewed, optimized, or prepared for the next step in the modernization process.
  • AnyView Modeling lets experts review and adjust the files generated by ScavEng, making it easy to optimize the system's architecture, fine-tune performance, and integrate new features.
  • Dtangle converts decomposed legacy code into modern, compiler-ready architecture. It simplifies and restructures outdated systems, enhancing performance, security, and maintainability. By reducing complexity and optimizing the code for current environments, Dtangle ensures seamless integration with modern technologies while improving efficiency and reducing energy consumption by up to 70%.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Find answers to common questions about VSM LegacyForward Suite and how it can help modernize your clients' legacy applications.


Product-Related Questions

  • What is VSM LegacyForward Suite?
    VSM Legacy Forward Suite is a set of powerful tools designed to help consultants modernize legacy applications. It includes ScavEng for legacy code decomposition, AnyView Modeling for multiple perspectives on code, and Dtangle for generating compiler-ready, optimized code.
  • What is COSA and why is it important?
    COSA (Coherent Object System Architecture) is our patented system architecture that simplifies code complexity and improves performance. COSA uses a 'logic before data' approach, which can reduce processor usage and energy consumption by up to 70% while enhancing application speed and security.
  • How does Temporal Engineering work in VSM LegacyForward Suite?
    Temporal Engineering is the core concept behind COSA. It involves the temporal ordering, storing, and managing of system events based on their anticipated occurrence, reducing complexity in the application’s logic. This makes the system more efficient, secure, and easier to maintain.


Implementation and Integration Questions

  • How does VSM LegacyForward Suite integrate with my current processes?
    Our tools are designed to integrate seamlessly with your current workflows. ScavEng helps you decompose legacy code, AnyView provides multiple perspectives for editing and viewing, and Dtangle generates code ready for modern compilers. Each tool can be used independently or as part of a complete modernization process.
  • Can VSM LegacyForward Suite handle any type of legacy system?
    Yes, VSM Legacy Forward Suite is designed to work with a wide range of legacy applications, especially those used in embedded systems. Our tools can handle complex legacy systems, regardless of size or complexity.
  • How long does it take to modernize an application using VSM LegacyForward Suite?
    The time required depends on the size and complexity of the legacy system. However, our tools are designed to streamline the process significantly, reducing the overall time needed for modernization by automating code decomposition and generation.

Performance and Efficiency Questions

  • How much will my clients' applications improve in performance?
    Applications modernized using VSM Legacy Forward Suite can experience performance gains of up to 70%. This includes faster processing speeds, reduced energy consumption, and lower hardware resource utilization.
  • Will using VSM Legacy Forward Suite reduce energy consumption in embedded systems?
    Yes. One of the key benefits of our COSA architecture is its ability to reduce energy consumption by up to 70%, making it ideal for resource-constrained environments like embedded systems.
  • Can VSM LegacyForward Suite help improve the security of legacy systems?
    Absolutely. By reducing system complexity and creating cleaner, more organized code, our tools help eliminate potential vulnerabilities, making the application more secure.
