    ClientJS: Migrating Java UI Clients to HTML 5 and JavaScript - An Experience Report
    (Softwaretechnik-Trends Band 34, Heft 2, 2014) Borkowski, Udo; Muchmore, Patrick
    We were tasked with migrating an existing web based Java applet User Interface (UI) to a UI solution based on HTML 5 and JavaScript. This new UI addresses problems with multiple browsers, Java Runtime Environments (JREs), and operating system incompatibilities and allows for display on mobile devices that do not support JRE. This report briefly describes the approach we used for the ClientJS project, and summarizes some of the complications that were encountered along the way

    Migrating a Multi-Million Lines Smalltalk System to Java – A Project Presentation
    (Softwaretechnik-Trends Band 39, Heft 2, 2019) Borkowski, Udo
    parcIT provides software and methodology services for bank management, risk management and rating procedures. Initially written in Smalltalk the software evolved to a hybrid Smalltalk-Java system with more than 3 MLOC Smalltalk and more than 4 MLOC Java code. We will present how we plan to migrate the software to a Java-only solution

    SwingJS: Giving Java applets new life as JavaScript equivalents, applications to education and science
    (Softwaretechnik-Trends Band 38, Heft 2, 2018) Borkowski, Udo; Hanson, Robert M.; Ahsan, Tahir; Yadav, Nikesh; El Mouldi, Nadia; Lee, Andrew; Raduege, Andreas; Renjian, Zhou
    Java applets for web applications have become outdated and clumsy, requiring the user-install of Java, updated security certificates, and use of specific, generally nonstandard, browsers. Hundreds of web sites depending upon such applets are no longer functional. By converting Java applets to JavaScript, we can regain the functionality of these valuable educational resources, returning these web pages to active service to education and science. We created SwingJS, a system to convert Java applets to JavaScript without need for extensive rewriting of the Java code or starting de novo. The JavaScript "applets" are created in parallel with standard Eclipse-based Java development, along with their Java counterparts simultaneously, in real time. The result is that we have the original functional Java applet or stand-alone application, and we have its virtually identical JavaScript counterpart, with all the layout and event-driven functionality of the original. Several important applications relevant to Chemistry and Physics, such as Jmol, JSpecView, Physlets, and PhET, were successfully converted.
