Abstract

Software evolution analysis plays an important role in several software engineering activities which are mainly related to maintenance tasks. For this purpose, several approaches and tools have been developed to identify and analyze code changes throughout the history of a software system. However, most existing tools are restricted to a specific type of software artifact, are language-dependent and can only be locally executed on a client machine. To overcome these limitations we propose WebDiff, a web-based generic differencing service for various types of software artifacts including source code and UML diagrams.
