Abstract: One important problem in today organizations is the
existence of non-integrated information systems, inconsistency and
lack of suitable correlations between legacy and modern systems.
One main solution is to transfer the local databases into a global one.
In this regards we need to extract the data structures from the legacy
systems and integrate them with the new technology systems. In
legacy systems, huge amounts of a data are stored in legacy
databases. They require particular attention since they need more
efforts to be normalized, reformatted and moved to the modern
database environments. Designing the new integrated (global)
database architecture and applying the reverse engineering requires
data normalization. This paper proposes the use of database reverse
engineering in order to integrate legacy and modern databases in
organizations. The suggested approach consists of methods and
techniques for generating data transformation rules needed for the
data structure normalization.
Abstract: Article presents the geometry and structure
reconstruction procedure of the aircraft model for flatter research
(based on the I22-IRYDA aircraft). For reconstruction the Reverse
Engineering techniques and advanced surface modeling CAD tools
are used. Authors discuss all stages of data acquisition process,
computation and analysis of measured data. For acquisition the three
dimensional structured light scanner was used. In the further sections,
details of reconstruction process are present. Geometry
reconstruction procedure transform measured input data (points
cloud) into the three dimensional parametric computer model
(NURBS solid model) which is compatible with CAD systems.
Parallel to the geometry of the aircraft, the internal structure
(structural model) are extracted and modeled. In last chapter the
evaluation of obtained models are discussed.
