For interaction with speech (i.e., natural language), we present an architecture and an implementation of conversational interfaces for the Microsoft HoloLens device. We aim to remedy some peculiarities of AR devices, but also enhancing the exploration task at hand. To implement the conversational interface different natural language processing (NLP) components such as natural language generation and intent recognition are typically required. Our proposed architecture integrates conversational components with the AR-based software visualization. We describe its implementation based on different user utterances, where the system provides information about the to-be-explored component-based software architecture in the form of adjusted visualizations and speech-based results. We apply out tool to explore OSGi-based software architectures.","PeriodicalId":375862,"journal":{"name":"2019 Working Conference on Software Visualization (VISSOFT)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123286960","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}

Visualizing how software evolves can be challenging, as it typically abstracts a multi-dimensional graph structure where individual components undergo frequent but localized changes. Existing approaches typically consider either only a small number of revisions or they focus on one particular aspect, such as the evolution of code metrics or architecture. Approaches using a static view with a time axis (such as line charts) are limited in their expressiveness regarding structure, and approaches visualizing structure quickly become cluttered with an increasing number of revisions and components. We propose a novel trade-off between displaying global structure over a large time period with reduced accuracy and visualizing fine-grained changes of individual components with absolute accuracy. We demonstrate how our approach displays changes by blending redundant visual features (such as scales or repeating data points) where they are not expressive. We show how using this approach to explore software evolution can reveal ephemeral information when familiarizing oneself with a new project. We provide a working implementation as an extension to our open-source library for fine-grained evolution analysis, LISA.","PeriodicalId":375862,"journal":{"name":"2019 Working Conference on Software Visualization (VISSOFT)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127835249","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}

Some of these approaches also visualize monitoring results and provide details on requirements violations to end users. However, only few studies exist about the usefulness of requirements monitoring tools for practitioners, particularly regarding visualization. In this paper, we present a user study we have conducted with both industrial practitioners and researchers to assess the usefulness of visualization capabilities we have been developing for an event-based requirements monitoring tool. These capabilities allow users to monitor the status of the involved systems, to view trends and statistics, and to inspect the events and data that led to specific violations when diagnosing their root cause. We first performed a walkthrough of the tool using the cognitive dimensions of notations framework from the field of human-computer interaction. We then conducted a user study involving five software engineers of a large company from the automation software domain and four researchers. Using the tool's visualization capabilities all subjects succeeded in monitoring a real-world automation system and in diagnosing violations. Subjects regarded the visualization capabilities as essential for understanding the behavior of a complex system. Based on the study results we derive implications, opportunities, and risks of using visualization in requirements monitoring tools.","PeriodicalId":375862,"journal":{"name":"2019 Working Conference on Software Visualization (VISSOFT)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126316956","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}

Understanding how programmers navigate through a large number of classes and methods to find bugs is important to educators and practitioners in software engineering. However, the eye tracking data collected on realistic codebases is massive compared to traditional eye tracking data on one static page. The same content may appear in different areas on the screen with users scrolling in an Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Hierarchically structured content and fluid method position compose the two major challenges for visualization. We present a dual-space analysis approach to explore eye tracking data by leveraging existing software visualizations and a new graph embedding visualization. We use the graph embedding technique to quantify the distance between two arbitrary methods, which offers a more accurate visualization of distance with respect to the inherent relations, compared with the direct software structure and the call graph. The visualization offers both naturalness and readability showing time-varying eye movement data in both the content space and the embedded space, and provides new discoveries in developers' eye tracking behaviors.","PeriodicalId":375862,"journal":{"name":"2019 Working Conference on Software Visualization (VISSOFT)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132410717","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}
