Perfective changes in well-established software systems are easier to perform when the development team has a solid understanding of the internals. However, it is reasonable to assume that the use of an open source system to incorporate new features and obtain a new software product is an appealing approach instead of coding a new product from scratch. Considering this scenario, and considering that...
Several attempts to facilitate understanding the behavior of software systems have been proposed. Nonetheless, there is no widely accepted approach to facilitate understanding software systems with poor documentation with the goal that new developers could contribute with the evolution of these systems. The effort to understand complex systems may be a prohibitive factor in program comprehension tasks...
This work proposes a tool for understanding feature scattering through the graphical visualization of the intersection between features and source code. The tool collects trace events of multi-threaded programs for selected features and shows matrices that help analyzing where those features are implemented. Our claim is that the tool reduces the effort to identify where features are implemented and...
