摘要
Visualizations of software can be utilized in varying degrees throughout the software development cycle as aids to comprehension, analysis, and measurement. This research focuses on the experimental evaluation and refinement of a set of scalable visualizations that show promise for improving the overall software process. The roles which visualizations may play during reverse engineering and maintenance are of particular interest. This research also investigates the manner in which software visualizations are used in practice by software professionals. Partners from government and industry have agreed to participate by providing access to appropriate production software. This paper will describe a framework for evaluating visual techniques and investigating their practical use and application.
