M3triCity: Visualizing Evolving Software Data Cities
The city metaphor for visualizing software systems in 3D has been widely explored and has led to many diverse implementations and approaches. Common among all approaches is a focus on the software artifacts, while the aspects pertaining to the data and information (stored both in databases and files) used by a system are seldom taken into account. We present M3triCity, an interactive web application whose goal is to visualize object-oriented software systems, their evolution, and the way they access data and information. We illustrate how it can be used for program comprehension and evolution analysis of data-intensive software systems. Demo video URL: https://youtu.be/uBMvZFIlWtk
