Understanding software artefacts is a crucial task for people who want to participate in any software development process. However, because of the large amount of detailed and scattered information in software artefacts, understanding them is usually time-consuming and vulnerable to human errors and subjectivities. A system that aids practitioners to investigate understanding about software art...

Visualization enables ‘seeing the unseen’, and provides new insight into the underlying data. However, users far too easily believe or rely on a single representation of the data; this view may be a favourite method, the simplest to perform, or a method that has always been used! But, a single representation may generate a misinterpretation of the information or provide a situation where the us...

In this paper we present a novel approach for interactive rendering of virtual views from real image sequences. Combining the concepts of light fields, depth-compensated image warping and view dependent texture mapping, this plenoptic modeling approach can handle large and complex scenes. A portable, handheld multi-camera system has been developed that allows to record multiple image streams by...

This report describes the program and the results of Dagstuhl Seminar 17092 "Search as Learning", which brought together 26 researchers from diverse research backgrounds. The motivation for the seminar stems from the fact that modern Web search engines are largely engineered and optimized to fulfill lookup tasks instead of complex search tasks. The latter though are an essential component of in...

The images show kernel density sum of all ship traffic close to Stavanger in a given time period. These plots gives a good quantitative measurement on the volume of traffic in the different areas. If the user investigates how the traffic volume changes over time, however, a side by side presentation will only provide a qualitative idea on changes. Changes (or differences) are made explicit by c...

This paper describes a demonstration of the SHriMP visualization tool. SHriMP provides a flexible and customizable environment for exploring software programs. It supports the embedding of multiple views, both graphical and textual within a nested graph display of a program’s software architecture. SHriMP has recently been redesigned and reimplemented using Java Bean components. These APIs allo...

A visual analysis approach and the developed supporting technology provide a comprehensive solution for analyzing large and complex integrated genomic and biomedical data. This paper presents a methodology that is implemented as an interactive visual analysis technology for extracting knowledge from complex genetic and clinical data and then visualizing it in a meaningful and interpretable way....

In this paper, four new algorithms for improvements of MD5 and SHA-Keyed/Unkeyed MD5 and Keyed/Unkeyed SHA are proposed. We change the mode of ®xed retrieval of the parameters to that of dynamic retrieval of the parameters by applying a mapping between the index phrase and the parameter table. As shown in the experimental result, with 1% degradation of performance, comparing to the original alg...

In this paper, we propose an interactive visualization technique for analysis of results of large-scale software regression testing. Results of this analysis identify the most probable root causes of deterioration or improvement. The provided multi-level visualization solution allows to evaluate project status and efficiently manage project lifecycle. This technique can be used on top of almost...
