A careful analysis of the boundary effects on the eigenstates of a disordered system when it is embeded in an ordered system was carried out. It was found that the properties of the system in the region whose distance from the boundary is greater than the localization length of the system can be reproduced. This then suggests a convenient way to study the eigenstatea of disordered systems.
