Abstract
A legacy application may be executed as a Web Service by receiving from a client application a request comprising application input data that includes target legacy program identifying information and a template identifier, loading the specified template, translating the input data into a data format compatible with the application, executing the application and translating the output data for transmission to the client application. The template corresponds to the legacy application and comprises metadata describing the application flow and the required input data and output data for the application.
