Maleku: an evolutionary visual software analytics tool for providing insights into software evolution
Software maintenance is a complex process that requires the understanding and comprehension of software project details. It involves the understanding of the evolution of the software project, hundreds of software components and the relationships among software items in the form of inheritance, interface implementation, coupling and cohesion. Consequently, the aim of evolutionary visual software analytics is to support software project managers and developers during software maintenance. It takes into account the mining of evolutionary data, the subsequent analysis of the results produced by the mining process for producing evolution facts, the use of visualizations supported by interaction techniques and the active participation of users. Hence, this paper proposes an evolutionary visual software analytics tool for the exploration and comparison of project structural, interface implementation and class hierarchy data, and the correlation of structural data with metrics, as well as socio-technical relationships. Its main contribution is a tool that automatically retrieves evolutionary software facts and represent them using a scalable visualization design
Towards Scalable Visual Exploration of Very Large RDF Graphs
In this paper, we outline our work on developing a disk-based infrastructure
for efficient visualization and graph exploration operations over very large
graphs. The proposed platform, called graphVizdb, is based on a novel technique
for indexing and storing the graph. Particularly, the graph layout is indexed
with a spatial data structure, i.e., an R-tree, and stored in a database. In
runtime, user operations are translated into efficient spatial operations
(i.e., window queries) in the backend.Comment: 12th Extended Semantic Web Conference (ESWC 2015
Big Data Visualization Tools
Data visualization is the presentation of data in a pictorial or graphical
format, and a data visualization tool is the software that generates this
presentation. Data visualization provides users with intuitive means to
interactively explore and analyze data, enabling them to effectively identify
interesting patterns, infer correlations and causalities, and supports
sense-making activities.Comment: This article appears in Encyclopedia of Big Data Technologies,
