Abstract :
Clone detection results are often voluminous and difficult to present. Most clone presentations focus on the quantitative clone results but do not relate them to the structure of the analyzed system. This makes it difficult to interpret the results and draw conclusions. We suggest using edge bundle views to interrelate the system´s structure with the clone detection results. Using this technique, it is easier to interpret the clone results and direct further analysis effort.
