PDF: Searching and exploring software repositories in virtual reality
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new approach to visualization of software repositories that allow users to search and explore software projects in virtual reality. In provided environment, respective information structures are mapped to interactive 3D objects. We assume that such transformation of information space to its visible representation will enable the users to gain problem domain knowledge subliminally during the explorations, and that the acquired knowledge will help them to fulfill future tasks more effectively.
