The Design Navigator: charting Java programs

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstract

Abstract

The Design Navigator is a semi-automated design mining tool which reverse engineers LePUS3 design charts from JavaTM 1.4 programs at any level of abstraction in reasonable time. We dem-onstrate the Design Navigator's step-wise charting process of Java Foundation Classes, generating decreasingly abstract charts of java.awt and discovering building-blocks in its design.
