This term is not defined precisely and has an emotional component Usually, it refers to the fact that systems are often developed over a long period of time in an incremental manner without proper documentation so that it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain them For example, as the number of functions added to the system increases, the difficulty of adding new functions increases as well since each new function has to be evaluated with regard to its impact on the other functions already included in the system Also, adapting the system to changing business environments can generally only be done by incremental changes, i e by adding functionality rather than by chaning the structure of the system All these difficulties may lead to a situation where a company's computer-based information system is considered a burden rather than a support, i e a burden inherited from past (myopic) decisions

Those systems in existence and either deployed or under development at the start of a modernization program All legacy systems will be affected by modernization to a greater or lesser extent Some systems will become transition systems before they are retired Other systems will simply be retired as their functions are assumed by modernization systems Still others will be abandoned when they become obsolete [Treasury Enterprise Architecture Framework]
