Object-Oriented White Papers

An Approach to Object-Oriented Program Understanding

Overview An automated tool to assist in the understanding of legacy code can be useful both in the areas of software reuse and software maintenance. Most previous work in this area has concentrated on functionally-oriented code. Whereas object-oriented code has been shown to be inherently more reusable than functionally-oriented code, in many cases the eventual reuse of the object-oriented code was not considered during development. The research described in this paper addresses an approach to the automated understanding of object-oriented code as an aid to the reuse of object-oriented code.
