One of the vital reasons for reverse engineering legacy software systems is to make it inter-operable. Moreover, technological advancements and changes in usability also motivate reverse engineering to exploit new features and incorporate them in legacy software systems. In this context, Web services are emerging and evolving as solutions for software systems for business applications in terms of facilitating interactions between business to business and business to customers. Web services are gaining significance due to inherent features like interoperability, simple implementation, and exploiting the boom in Internet infrastructure. Thus, this work proposes a framework based strategy using .net for effortless migration from legacy software systems to Web services. Further, this work also proposes that software metrics observed during the process of reverse engineering facilitate design of Web services from legacy systems.
