Deterministic Translation: Why LLMs need Abstract Syntax Trees
A comparative analysis of stochastic generation versus rule-based AST verification in COBOL-to-Java migration pipelines. We demonstrate that pure LLM approaches fail compliance audits in 14% of edge cases.
Memory Safe: Rust-based connectors for legacy COBOL
Exploring the use of FFI (Foreign Function Interface) to wrap legacy mainframe logic in memory-safe Rust enclosures, preventing buffer overflows during the modernization transition state.
The Latency Myth: Benchmarking Java on z/OS vs x86
Real-world performance metrics of modernized Java workloads running on commodity hardware versus native mainframe MIPS. Results suggest a break-even point at 50k transactions/second.
Synthetic Data Generation for GDPR-Compliant Testing
Methodologies for training GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) on PII-heavy banking ledgers to produce statistically identical but anonymous test datasets.
