Data structures and algorithms include abstract concepts and processes, which people often
find difficult to understand. Examples of these are complex data types and procedural …

In this paper, we introduce a new tool, MatrixPro, intended for illustrating algorithms in
action. One can produce algorithm animations in terms of direct manipulation of the library …

Software visualization and algorithm animation are topics of growing interest in computer
science education. We propose a new interface to support the interaction between learners …

ANIMALSCRIPT is a powerful scripting language for generating program visualizations
using the ANIMAL animation tool. ANIMAL itself offers a small but powerful set of graphical …

Computer algorithms commonly involve creation, reorganization or destruction of relations
between objects. This means that they are generally excellent candidates for visualization …

The software animation system PASTIS (Program Animation System with Interactive
Solutions) for program animation with emphasis on the visualization of the dynamic …

An algorithm animation environment is a means for exploring the dynamic behavior of
algorithms that makes possible a fundamental improvement in the way we understand and …

In this paper, we present a taxonomy of algorithm animation languages, and apply it to
evaluate a set of current languages. The taxonomy can be used by algorithm visualization …

This paper deals with techniques for the design and production of appealing algorithmic
animations and their use in computer science education. A good visual animation is both a …

A software environment is described which provides facilities at a variety of levels for
“animating” algorithms: exposing properties of programs by displaying multiple dynamic …
