The experience gave rise to various considerations of interest, first among them being the clear interaction between the quality of the product and the quality of the process. A method of synergetic application of static and dynamic analysis to improve understanding of the program was consolidated. The experience enabled modifications to be introduced connecting the reverse engineering process more closely with the understanding of the programs and information deriving from the application domain. Finally, the problem of the efficacy of the tools used to obtain the reverse engineering products was made evident during the experimentation on the field.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":308971,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1994 IEEE 3rd Workshop on Program Comprehension- WPC '94","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115156685","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}

Thus, the comprehension of parallel programs is increasingly important. Understanding parallel programs is more challenging than understanding serial programs because of the issues of concurrency, scale, communications, shared resources, and shared state. In this article, we argue that the use of visualizations and animations of programs can be an invaluable asset to program comprehension. We present example problems and visualizations, showing how graphical displays can assist program understanding. We also describe the Animation Choreographer, a tool that helps programmers better comprehend the temporal characteristics of their programs.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":308971,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1994 IEEE 3rd Workshop on Program Comprehension- WPC '94","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116896486","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}

Additionally, they suffer from extensive maintenance. The paper addresses these concerns in the context of reverse engineering. It discusses the development of a method to identify objects in imperative code, specifically FORTRAN-77. An algorithm that uses a greedy approach to object extraction is presented. The imperative code is analyzed at the subroutine level and, using the concepts of graph theory, a set of objects is generated.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":308971,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1994 IEEE 3rd Workshop on Program Comprehension- WPC '94","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128637437","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}

It was determined that the colour display mechanism both lessened the time taken to perform a code optimization task, and was preferred by subjects. The use of the font size display mechanism showed no significant benefits.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":308971,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1994 IEEE 3rd Workshop on Program Comprehension- WPC '94","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133898125","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}

Its architecture supports the definition of multiple documents and multiple document types, and allows the relationships that are implicit within the set of documents to be represented explicitly. We identify two techniques that aid program comprehension which require knowledge about the relationships that exist in and between documents. They are program dependency analysis and literate programming. Two simple examples are presented to illustrate the flexible definition of relations within such an architecture and the use of relations for presentation of and navigation through, various views of a program and its related documentation. These examples highlight the application of such an approach to program dependency analysis and literate programming.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":308971,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1994 IEEE 3rd Workshop on Program Comprehension- WPC '94","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121018045","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}

The difficulties are exacerbated in programs written to take advantage of preprocessing facilities. This paper examines problems associated with source code containing preprocessor constructs-i.e. included files, conditional compilation and macros. We define the useful mappings from tokens in the preprocessor's output to the source file(s), and propose that by capturing these correspondences, an internal program representation can be built which allows for the use of maintenance techniques including program slicing, ripple analysis and dicing. The method presented is generic; to illustrate that the technique is feasible, we discuss ANSI C preprocessor constructs-in particular, macro substitution-and explain the modus developed to handle them in GHINSU-an integrated maintenance environment for ANSI C programs.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":308971,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1994 IEEE 3rd Workshop on Program Comprehension- WPC '94","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116598059","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}

OO!CARE demonstrates some practical solutions to the problem of extracting and visualizing object oriented program dependencies (i.e. data objects and their relationships). It is an extension of an earlier tool for maintaining C programs called CARE (Computer Aided Re engineering). We also discuss some early experiences acquired from using the tool. For instance, an important observation made during a re engineering exercise is that some characteristics of the object-oriented programming paradigm such as inheritance and polymorphism contribute significantly to the complexity of understanding program dependencies. Moreover, we discuss how object-oriented program dependencies differ from the procedural ones and explain how they can be visualized within the same environment.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":308971,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1994 IEEE 3rd Workshop on Program Comprehension- WPC '94","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125046841","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}
