This paper presents X-RAY, an approach for recovering distributed software architectures. X-RAY builds on previous work on architecture recovery and more traditional reverse engineering techniques, as well as on notations for architecture description. The key features of the approach are illustrated through the depiction of a step-by-step recovery experiment performed on a small yet non-trivial distributed software system. Initial results from an ongoing experiment involving a larger-scale system are also discussed.","PeriodicalId":398816,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 6th International Workshop on Program Comprehension.

A program slicing algorithm is defined to identify the statements implementing the user interface component.

The focus of this paper is on the partition of a legacy system, while issues related to the re-engineering, encapsulation, and wrapping of the legacy components and to the definition of the middleware layer through which they communicate are not tackled.","PeriodicalId":398816,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 6th International Workshop on Program Comprehension.

Only seven questions are required to pinpoint and comprehend program sectors well enough to be able to alter them without undesired side effects. These questions and their answers are proposed in the following paper.","PeriodicalId":398816,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 6th International Workshop on Program Comprehension. IWPC'98 (Cat.

Visualisation is arguably one of the most profitable means of communicating information to a user. As software systems become larger and more complex we find ourselves in greater need for techniques to visualise such large information structures. This paper concentrates on visualising software systems using 3D graphics and VR technology. The main concepts of 3D software visualisation are introduced as well as a set of desirable properties which act as both guidelines for designing a visualisation and also as a framework for evaluating existing visualisations. A prototype visualisation, FileVis, is described and evaluated against these desirable properties.","PeriodicalId":398816,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 6th International Workshop on Program Comprehension.

Using our software visualization approach, programmers assigned to the conversion can see Y2K impact on an entire code portfolio, by application, by subsystem, by program, and even by line of code. The insights gained from our Y2K views lead to more efficient conversion strategies and more effective progress tracking.","PeriodicalId":398816,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 6th International Workshop on Program Comprehension.

The paper presents the DIME vision, its catalogue of evolutionary transformations-program transformations used by programmers during software maintenance-and scenarios of how they may be used by a programmer during software maintenance. The DIME system will provide for programmers what programmers provide for other computer users: a simple, intuitive, yet powerful way to transform data with the click of a mouse. It will place at the programmer's finger-tips-figuratively speaking-rigorous, formal transformations for creating, composing, analyzing, and modifying the architecture of a software system. Using DIME a programmer will radically overhaul the architecture of a software system just by point-and-click and drag-and-drop with the guarantee that the external behavior of the system is unchanged.","PeriodicalId":398816,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 6th International Workshop on Program Comprehension.

Using a questionnaire on a web page, we obtained 69 responses from readers of 7 newsgroups. Respondents were asked about their source code searching habits: what tools they used, why they searched, and what they searched for. The four most common search targets were function definitions, all uses of a function, variable definitions, and all uses of a variable. The most common search motivations were defect repair, code reuse, program understanding, feature addition, and impact analysis. Eleven archetypes were generated from the anecdotes and results. The implications and practical applications of these findings and method are discussed.","PeriodicalId":398816,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 6th International Workshop on Program Comprehension.

Design pattern recovery in object-oriented software 面向对象软件中的设计模式恢复

The pattern recovery process is based on a multi-stage filtering strategy to avoid combinatorial explosion on large software systems. To maintain independence from the language and the case tools adopted in developing software, both design and code are mapped into an intermediate representation. The multi-stage searching strategy allows to safely determine pattern candidates. To assess the effectiveness of the pattern recovery process a portable environment written in Java has been developed. Based on this environment, experimental results on public domain and industrial software were obtained and are discussed in the paper. Evidence is shown that, by exploiting information about method calls as a further constraint beyond the structural ones, the number of false positives is reduced.","PeriodicalId":398816,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings. 6th International Workshop on Program Comprehension.
