Moreover, research in computer-science education suggests that concurrency and synchronization concepts are generally difficult to master. It stands to reason that comprehension tasks may be more complex for programs that employ concurrency than for sequential programs. We believe that external representations, specifically refinements to some of the popular UML modeling notations, should aid students in mastering fundamental concurrency/synchronization concepts and should enable practitioners to better comprehend the dynamically evolving nature of the these programs. In this paper, we present our synchronization adorned UML (saUML) sequence diagram notation that highlights aspects of thread interactions and describe an empirical study of whether these diagrams, as opposed to purely textual representations, help students to better understand concurrent executions and concurrency concepts, as measured by their ability to answer questions about a particular execution of a multi-threaded system. A statistically significant benefit was found from the study.","PeriodicalId":135871,"journal":{"name":"15th IEEE International Conference on Program Comprehension (ICPC '07)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123316909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, due to the big abstraction gap between the modeled domain and today's programming languages, the mapping is most of the times ambiguous as concepts and relations from the real world are distorted and diffused in the code. In this paper we present a comprehensive formal framework for describing the many-to-many mappings between domain concepts and the program elements, real-world relations and program relations and the real-world concept names and program identifiers. This framework allows us to describe and discuss typical classes of diffusion of the domain knowledge in code. Based on our formal framework we describe an algorithm to recover the mappings between entities from an ontology and program elements. We illustrate the framework by using examples from the Java standard library.","PeriodicalId":135871,"journal":{"name":"15th IEEE International Conference on Program Comprehension (ICPC '07)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125027472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A heuristic-based approach that uses sequential-pattern mining is applied to the commits in software repositories for uncovering highly frequent co-changing sets of artifacts (e.g., source code and documentation). If different types of files are committed together with high frequency then there is a high probability that they have a traceability link between them. The approach is evaluated on a number of versions of the open source system KDE. As a validation step, the discovered links are used to predict similar changes in the newer versions of the same system. The results show highly precision predictions of certain types of traceability links.","PeriodicalId":135871,"journal":{"name":"15th IEEE International Conference on Program Comprehension (ICPC '07)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121890575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the proposed approach, LSI is used to map the concepts expressed in queries written by the programmer to relevant parts of the source code, presented as a ranked list of search results. Given the ranked list of source code elements, our approach selects most relevant attributes from these documents and organizes the results in a concept lattice, generated via FCA. The approach is evaluated in a case study on concept location in the source code of eclipse, an industrial size integrated development environment. The results of the case study show that the proposed approach is effective in organizing different concepts and their relationships present in the subset of the search results. The proposed concept location method outperforms the simple ranking of the search results, reducing the programmers' effort.","PeriodicalId":135871,"journal":{"name":"15th IEEE International Conference on Program Comprehension (ICPC '07)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129164874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, it is a hard problem in both theory and practice. A recent method to increase efficiency is based on conservatively filtering edges of a software system's structure graph, i.e., only removing edges guaranteed not to be part of any pattern instance. This leads to planar graphs in many cases allowing for efficient matching algorithms. This paper shows the feasibility of a non-conservative filtering approach, where even edges possibly part of a pattern instance can be removed to reach planarity. We show theoretically that not only decreased accuracy is possible due to non-conservative filtering, but also increased accuracy. We also perform an experimental evaluation supporting this statement. The paper complements the safe filtering method and together the two approaches allow for efficient pattern detection for all systems and patterns.","PeriodicalId":135871,"journal":{"name":"15th IEEE International Conference on Program Comprehension (ICPC '07)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121057821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SBSE techniques can cater for multiple, possibly competing objectives and/or constraints and applications where the potential solution space is large and complex. Such situations are common in software engineering, leading to an increasing interest in SBSE. This paper provides a brief overview of SBSE, explaining some of the ways in which it has already been applied to program-comprehension related activities.

What has not changed is the engineers' mental capacity to operate on about seven distinct pieces of information at a time. Improvements like the widespread use of UML have led to more abstract software design activities, however the same cannot be said for reverse engineering activities. The well known concept assignment problem is still being solved at the line-by-line level of analyzing source code. The introduction of abstraction to the problem will allow the engineer to move farther away from the details of the system, increasing his ability to see the role that domain level concepts play in the system. In this paper we present a technique that facilitates filtering of classes from existing systems at the source level based on their relationship to the core concepts in the domain. This approach can simplify the process of reverse engineering and design recovery, as well as other activities that require a mapping to domain level concepts.","PeriodicalId":135871,"journal":{"name":"15th IEEE International Conference on Program Comprehension (ICPC '07)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126933121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Use cases are used in the software development industry for the purpose of better understanding of software systems. The problem is that use cases for large and complex software systems are themselves large and complex. We have built a tool called Scenario Explorer to help the user handle this complexity by guiding him or her through the use cases. The user is provided with just enough information to comprehend the behavior of interest. Tools like this are crucial for developers that need to obtain a better comprehension of a whole software system, for example newcomers in a project or managers.
