With a meaning-preserving restructuring tool, a software engineer can change a program's
structure to ease future modifications. However, deciding how to restructure the program …

A software engineer can use a meaning-preserving program restructuring tool during
maintenance to change a program's structure to ease modification. One common …

Restructuring software to improve its design can lower software maintenance costs. One
problem in carrying out such a restructuring is planning the new detailed design. The star …

Restructuring software to improve its design can lower software maintenance costs. One
problem encountered during restructuring is formulating the new design. A meaning …

Tool-assisted meaning-preserving program restructuring has been proposed to aid the
evolution of large software systems. These systems are difficult to modify because relevant …

Maintaining the consistency of multiple program representations in a program manipulation
tool is difficult. I describe a hybrid software architecture for a meaning-preserving program …

Program comprehension is the process in which software engineers gain an understanding
of a system. A program comprehension environment provides tools to capture and …

Program visualisation uses computer graphics and animation techniques to produce
pictures illustrating the dynamic behaviour of a running computer program. Most program …

Automated assistance for meaning-preserving global restructuring is an approach for
helping software engineers improve the structure of programs, thus lowering the costs of …

In this paper program visualization is defined as a mapping from programs to graphical
representations. Simple forms of program visualization are frequently encountered in …
