Abstract

This article presents IntrosPAC, a software tool based on aspect oriented programming, which, from a PAC-Amodeus compliant source code, generates a graphic representation of the corresponding conceptual architecture. The graphic animation supports developers for understanding the structure of their code as well as for detecting violation of the principles of the reference architecture model. IntrosPAC has been successful in teaching software architecture modeling for interactive systems and in improving students understanding.
