VB6/ASP to .NET Migration Assessment Offer
Presently, we do not sell a one-size-fits-all version of gmBasic. Rather we work with our clients to calibrate the translator so that it meets their specific migration goals. Properly calibrated, gmBasic produces translations that are more correct, and more conformant to target architecture standards. This means much less manual effort, fewer defects, and much less risk to finish the migration. A calibrated version of the toolset will be available to you as the product of our tuning engagement.

The first step in a tuning engagement is a free assessment that includes the following steps:
  1. A first discussion with you (via email or by phone) to help us understand your pending migration project and to make arrangements for sending us a copy of your codebase, subject to a non-disclosure agreement, if necessary.

  2. You send us a copy of the planned migration codebase (all VB6/ASP code and all build-time dependencies (e.g. referenced COM components). If you can share any details about your desired .NET architecture and your migration strategy that is also very helpful.

  3. We do a first translation of the entire codebase and gather metrics on it size and structural complexity, particularly in relation to COM replacements and re-structuring for .NET. From these metrics, we figure out how far our tools can take your codebase towards a desirable .NET end state.

  4. We prepare a report on our findings and present the results of our assessment to you.

  5. If requested, we will submit a proposal detailing various options for the implementation of your pending migration project.

   Fortran to C Migration Assessment Offer
PromulaFortran is a translation tool which we customize for our clients to fit their specific Fortran-to-C migration requirements and re-architecting standards. It is a product that we license to clients for self-service use.
We use this tool to do custom migrations for clients. We also use it to do migration assessments for potential clients. Actually, most of the time we use it to convince potential clients that the tool does work and it does produce C translations that are both correct for the target platform and also readable for long-term maintenance by a typical C programmer. The free assessment includes the following steps:
  1. A first discussion with you (via email or by phone) to tell us about your pending conversion project and to make arrangements for sending us a copy of your Fortran codebase, subject to a non-disclosure agreement, if necessary.

  2. You send us a sample of the planned migration codebase (and all compile-time dependencies, e.g., source code and Fortran INCLUDE files) along with any other requirements you wish to specify.

  3. We do a first translation of the sample and send you translation results for your review. If the sample is complete enough for linking and execution, then we can also demonstrate functional equivalence between the source and target applications by running the target application and showing matching results.

  4. If requested, we will send you a quote for a promulaFortran license or a proposal detailing various options for the implementation of your pending migration project.
