Abstract :
As software evolves and becomes more and more complex, program comprehension arises as a major concern in software projects. The amount of data and the complexity of relationships between the entities are unmanageable for engineers without effective tool support. In this paper, we demonstrate how CocoViz can help understanding software in a quick and intuitive manner. Some of the implemented approaches have been presented independently before[1]. However, in CocoViz we combine them in an intuitive and easy to use manner.
