PDF: Visualization of software components and dependency graphs in virtual reality
Abstract
We present the visualization of component-based software architectures in Virtual Reality (VR) to understand complex software systems. We describe how to get all relevant data for the visualization by data mining on the whole source tree and on source code level. The data is stored in a graph database for further analysis and visualization. The software visualization uses an island metaphor. Storing the data in a graph database allows to easily query for different aspects of the software architecture.
