Understanding or comprehending source code is one of the core activities of software engineering. Understanding object-oriented source code is essential and required when a programmer maintains, migrates, reuses, documents or enhances…
Software visualization helps to comprehend the system by providing a vivid illustration. The developers, as well as the analysts, can have a glance over the total system to understand the basic changes over time from a high-level point of…
Developing an algorithm for a visualization prototype often involves the direct comparison of different development stages and design decisions, and even minor modifications may dramatically affect the results. While existing development…
Code annotations is a widely used feature in Java systems to configure custom metadata on programming elements. Their increasing presence creates the need for approaches to assess and comprehend their usage and distribution. In this…
Software Visualization encompasses the development and evaluation of methods for graphically representing different aspects of methods of software, including its structure, execution and evolution. Creating visualizations helps the user to…
Software visualizations are usually realized as standalone and isolated tools that use embedded code viewers within the visualization. In the context of program comprehension, only few approaches integrate visualizations into code editors,…
In this paper is clarify the summaries codes for programmers through three-dimensional shapes, and clearly programmers and developers, scholars and researchers in the field of software engineering, as well as researchers from the…
Software visualization tools can facilitate program comprehension by providing visual metaphors, or abstractions that reduce the amount of textual data that needs to be processed mentally. One way they do this is by enabling developers to…
Upcoming HI surveys will deliver large datasets, and automated processing using the full 3-D information (two positional dimensions and one spectral dimension) to find and characterize HI objects is imperative. In this context,…
Researchers in the humanities are among the many who are now exploring the world of big data. They have begun to use programming languages like Python or R and their corresponding libraries to manipulate large data sets and discover brand…
Program visualizations help to form useful mental models of how programs work, and to reason and debug code. But these visualizations exist at a fixed level of abstraction, e.g., line-by-line. In contrast, programmers switch between many…
In agile software development, test code can considerably contribute to the overall source code size. Being a valuable asset both in terms of verification and documentation, the composition of a test suite needs to be well understood in…
Context: Software development is a complex socio-technical process requiring a deep understanding of various aspects. In order to support practitioners in understanding such a complex activity, repository process metrics, like number of…
Software security visualization is an interdisciplinary field that combines the technical complexity of cybersecurity, including threat intelligence and compliance monitoring, with visual analytics, transforming complex security data into…
The city metaphor for visualizing software systems in 3D has been widely explored and has led to many diverse implementations and approaches. Common among all approaches is a focus on the software artifacts, while the aspects pertaining to…
To facilitate understanding the architecture of a software system, we developed SArF Map technique that visualizes software architecture from feature and layer viewpoints using a city metaphor. SArF Map visualizes implicit software features…
Context: Most prior software visualisation (SV) research has focused primarily on making aspects of intangible software product artefacts more evident. While undoubtedly useful, this focus has meant that software process visualisation has…
This paper proposes an open source visual analytics tool consisting of several views and perspectives on eye movement data collected during code reading tasks when writing computer programs. Hence the focus of this work is on code and…
Software visualization approaches for code reviews are often implemented as standalone applications, which use static code analysis. The goal is to visualize the structural changes introduced by a pull / merge request to facilitate the…
We introduce Code Park, a novel tool for visualizing codebases in a 3D game-like environment. Code Park aims to improve a programmer's understanding of an existing codebase in a manner that is both engaging and intuitive, appealing to…
