Abstract
A method of maintaining or improving functionality of legacy code for operation in a new machine system is disclosed. Reference code and documentation are leveraged to provide functionality of the machine system. The sections may be identified and presented as user defined representations (for example, pseudocode, diagrams, descriptive text, or encapsulations) so that the reference code may be migrated to a newer machine system and the sections may be re-written as necessary to make the sections of reference compatible with the new machine system.
