  abstract =   "The field of software visualization (SV) investigates
               approaches and techniques for static and dynamic graphical
               representations of algorithms, programs (code), and
               processed data. SV is concerned primarily with the analysis
               of programs and their development. The goal is to improve
               our understanding of inherently invisible and intangible
               software, particularly when dealing with large information
               spaces that characterize domains like software maintenance,
               reverse engineering, and collaborative development. The main
               challenge is to find effective mappings from different
               software aspects to graphical representations using visual
               metaphors. This paper provides an overview of the SV
               research, describes current research directions, and
               includes an extensive list of recommended readings.",
