Abstract: We present an implementation of part of a process for automatically decomposing a legacy software system into a loosely coupled components. The Relationship Modelling Framework (RMF) coupled with the appropriate components can generate and maintain a semantic model of a software system that shows at various levels of abstraction the elements that make up a software system such as source code entities, database tables, and the relationships between these elements. We introduce graph slicing, derived from program slicing, that can assist architects by identifying dependencies of selected elements. IBM provided independent preliminary validation of the model generation process' performance and the accuracy of the graph slicing by applying the results to one of their real-world software suites.
