Even in well-designed software, some concerns can not always be encapsulated in a module. Research on separation of concerns seeks to address this problem, but we lack an understanding of how programmers conceptualize the notion of a concern and then identify that concern in code. In this work, we have conducted two exploratory case studies to better understand these issues. The case studies involved programmers identifying concerns and associated code in existing, unfamiliar software: GNU's sort.c and the game Minesweeper. Based on our experiences with these two case studies, we have identified several types of concerns and have detailed a number of factors that impact programmer identification of concerns. Based on these insights, we have created two sets of guidelines: one to help programmers identify relevant concerns and another to help programmers identify code relating to concerns.","PeriodicalId":421860,"journal":{"name":"13th International Workshop on Program Comprehension (IWPC'05)","volume":"7 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114113039","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}

However, little empirical analysis of its use has taken place to provide evidence to support this claim. This paper presents a study, which assesses the design implications of including friendship in a system. A number of hypotheses are investigated based on previous work in this area by Counsell and Newson (2000). Our initial findings suggest that classes declared as friends are coupling hotspots, that the more friends a class has the more protected and private members it will contain and that friendship is not used to access inherited protected members.","PeriodicalId":421860,"journal":{"name":"13th International Workshop on Program Comprehension (IWPC'05)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127718537","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 cognitive pattern is the written record of a solution to a recurring cognitive problem typically employed by experienced practitioners. We focus on those relevant to program comprehension, which we have developed through studying the literature and conducting field studies. Collectively the set of patterns constitute a rich theory of program comprehension, which is why we call each one a micro-theory. We expand on one pattern, temporal details, which is also a 'pattern language since it breaks down into sub-patterns'. A key use of cognitive patterns is to suggest useful features for tool designers to implement.","PeriodicalId":421860,"journal":{"name":"13th International Workshop on Program Comprehension (IWPC'05)","volume":"238 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116587099","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}

Redmill et al., (1999)] calls HazOp). A structured brainstorming gathers a group of different system experts and the idea is that they will find more risks as a team than one-by-one. The CORAS modelling language [M. S. Lund et al., (2003)] has been designed to support the brainstorming process and to document security risk scenarios identified during these sessions. The language is graphical, based upon the Unified Modelling Language (UML) [R. E. Walpole et al., (1998)], and is recommended by OMG. This paper reports the results from two empirical experiments concerning the CORAS language. Our results show (1) many security risk analysis terms are used in the daily language and therefore well understood, but the more abstract or less frequently used terms can be a possible source for misunderstandings in a security analysis, and (2) the language's graphical icons make diagram \"navigation\" faster, but the diagrams are not necessarily understood more correctly than those without graphical icons.","PeriodicalId":421860,"journal":{"name":"13th International Workshop on Program Comprehension (IWPC'05)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129363899","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}

We explore the role that marked-up textual views can provide in support of software comprehension and maintenance. Text has the advantages of being easily communicated, effectively manipulated with existing tools, and highly scalable. Furthermore, marked-up text models may improve comprehension by expressing information directly within the context of maintainers' focus - the source code they are manipulating. The session intends to explore the expressibility of marked-up text and its applicability in support of program comprehension tasks. Topics will include: the roles these models fulfill, their limitations, their combination, and the exploration of future research directions.","PeriodicalId":421860,"journal":{"name":"13th International Workshop on Program Comprehension (IWPC'05)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131036324","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 participants in the study answered two types of questions: one set provided objective measurements to support the formulated hypotheses with respect to the accuracy and speed of the users answering questions using sv3D; the second set of questions provided subjective measurements that were used to support the evolution of sv3D. We formulated two null hypotheses with respect to accuracy and time respectively.
