Dates renovation enterprise

Objectif



The end of the second millennium represents a nightmare for the majority of the EDP managers world-wide. This is because the majority of the existing systems will not be able to work properly after the end of this century due the fact that the two digits representation usually adopted to manage dates will make software systems fail after 1999.

To solve this problem, user companies, operating in any industrial sector, are forced to run massive corrective maintenance projects involving the whole information system. These projects substantially concern the identification of all the records representing dates and their modification to four digits. This operation is far from being trivial and requires the availability of adequate technological support as well as huge investments.

The overall objective of DARE is to verify the suitability of the technology produced during the ESPRIT Project 7089 RECYCLE to support maintenance projects finalised to evolve Information Systems in order to ensure the correct management of the century transition problem.

The DARE consortium is composed of Engineering-Ingegneria Informatica S.p.A. (the largest private software house in Italy and RECYCLE coordinator) and by Banco di Chiavari S.p.A. (medium size Italian Bank of the Banca Commerciale Group).

The DARE objective will be achieved through an intensive experimentation, accomplished on a banking mission critical application provided by Banco di Chiavari. This approach enables to cushion the risks associated with the adoption of the RECYCLE based solution in a complete "Year 2000" project.

In order to efficiently apply the RECYCLE technology to the specific problem, the project plans to provide some minor enhancements to the existing environment. These mainly concern:
- identification of dates,
- estimation of the complexity of the changes required,
- reporting the lines of code candidate for changes,
- implementation of the changes.

The success of the DARE project will produce the following major results :
- enhancement of the RECYCLE technology to support Year 2000 projects,
- conversion of a mission critical application,
- dissemination of the project experience through a comprehensive report highlighting the critical factors that may be encountered and practical guidelines for accomplishing "Year 2000" projects.

Due to the technical proximity of the two problems, the results of the DARE project, and in particular the enhancements of RECYCLE, will contribute to establish the technical conditions for adopting a RECYCLE based solution to support reengineering projects finalised to adapt financial legacy systems to the new and changed requirements emerging from the introduction of the EURO as single European currency.

The project will provide Engineering with enabling technology and know-how to improve its capability to make profitable proposals on Year 2000 and will help Banco di Chiavari face its internal Year 2000 challenge having cushioned the risk related to the adoption of a leading edge solution.
