چکیده

Software visualisations of one form or another appear in numerous software maintenance tools. Visualisation is arguably one of the most profitable means of communicating information to a user. As software systems become larger and more complex we find ourselves in greater need for techniques to visualise such large information structures. This paper concentrates on visualising software systems using 3D graphics and VR technology. The main concepts of 3D software visualisation are introduced as well as a set of desirable properties which act as both guidelines for designing a visualisation and also as a framework for evaluating existing visualisations. A prototype visualisation, FileVis, is described and evaluated against these desirable

Visualizing Object-Oriented Software in Virtual Reality

The paper describes a system, Imsovision, for visualizing object-oriented software in a Virtual Reality Environment. A visualization language (COOL) is defined that maps C++ source code to a visual representation. Our aim is to develop a language with few metaphors and constructs, but with the ability to represent a variety of elements with no ambiguity or loss of meaning. In addition, the visu...

New visualization aspects related to intelligent solution procedure in papermaking optimization

1. Abstract Solving multiobjective optimization problems and presenting the solutions become complex when the problems contain more than two objectives to be optimized. Two-dimensional objective space can easily be shown with any visualizing software. However, in real life optimization problems there are often several objectives that should be optimized simultaneously. In this paper, we study p...
