If not, do there exist books with major chapters or appendices devoted to this problem?

I don't have personal experience with this system, but it is claimed successful in "TMM: Software Maintenance by Transformation" by G. Arango, et al., IEEE Software, (May 1986) {sorry, I don't have the vol and issue #s}. Does anyone know current status of this project? -Ken Dickey kend@mrloog.WR.TEK.COM
