Abstract

As an interdisciplinary topic, program visualization research needs a comprehensive approach, in order to be useful for college education and research, as well as software engineering. This main challenge consists of several aspects, like developing efficient visualization techniques, composing attractive pilot environments, analyzing visualizations from the cognitive point of view, creating functional taxonomies to compare various environments, supporting teamwork in algorithm design and programming, and designing field testing methods to evaluate a given visualization environment.
