The OSI and the CORBA technologies for systems management can be integrated using gateways and specification translation tools. We show that automatic translation produces results which are sub-optimal with respect to questions of style, performance and even correctness. A translation designer can offer worthwhile improvements by selecting translation options, and by providing complementary information. This approach, that we call flexible translation, is compatible with a generic implementation of gateways.
