FINAL YEAR PROJECT - OBJECTIVE
- to develop an application that will allow multiple program files to
be visualised / compared
The project involves the analysis, design and implementation of a
Software Visualisation and Comparison Tool with the following features
:
1. Allow multpile files to be displayed
2. Compare / highlight similar structures, code segments, variables in
each file, etc
3. Provide a % of similarities between modules
4. Show on screen the files being compared
5. Display side by side the files being compared
Another main feature of the project is to research the software
visualisation area in detail. The project will be undertaken in the
following manner.
RESEARCH
This will involve researching the whole area of s/w visualisation and
comparison through reading white papers and relevant internet sites on the
subject matter. This section of the project will be completed by the end
of Week 6 in the first semester.
ANALYSIS
The analysis of the specification and initial function of the tool
DESIGN
I hope to use OMT (Object Modelling Technique) to help in the design of
the interface and backround code. Note : OMT will also be applied to the
Analysis stage.
IMPLEMENTATION
The implementation
language will be Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0 on Windows 95 operating
system. This will occur at the ned of semster 1 and through semester 2.
