Abstract

Most software visualization systems and tools are designed from a single-user perspective and are bound to the desktop and Integrated Development Environments (IDEs). These design decisions do not allow users to easily navigate through software visualizations or to analyse software collaboratively. We have developed SourceVis, a collaborative multi-touch software visualization prototype for multi-touch tables. In this paper we describe the visualizations and interaction capabilities of our prototype.
