Abstract :
Data structures are more easily understood when they are presented visually rather than textually. We have developed a system, called Calypso, to allow the visual definition of data structures programs using pictorial pattern/action pairs in an imperative setting. Calypso is based on a general framework for building and combining visual notations in various domains. This framework permits Calypso to be easily extended with new data structures and abstractions
