This article presents doctoral research on tool integration within software engineering environments. Tool integration concerns the techniques used to form coalitions of tools tha...
In this paper we present a proposal for a novel approach to facilitating transparent interoperability among reverse engineering tools. We characterize the architectural and operat...
Reverse engineering is an imperfect process driven by imperfect knowledge. Most current reverse engineering tools do not adequately consider these inherent characteristics. They f...
A key desideratum for many software comprehension tools is to reduce the mental burdens of software engineers. That is, the tools should support cognition. This key benefit is di...
Many software engineering research tools are stand-alone applications that have trouble interoperating with other development tools and do not fit well into the software develope...
