The visualization group of TU/e has worked on information visualization since 1998. In this talk I will give an overview of our work on tree, graph, and multivariate visualization, for a variety of applications, including software visualization. Techniques like cushion treemaps, squarified treemaps, hierarchical edge bundles, and flexible linked axes will be illustrated with demos. Furthermore, I will reflect on approaches for the development of new presentations and dealing with evaluation, based on our experience and lessons we learned.

Software Visualization is, despite the many publications and advances in this research field, still not being considered by mainstream software industry: currently very few integrated development environments offer (if at all) only limited visualization support, and in general it can be said that software visualization is being ignored at a professional level by the average software developer. Moreover, even relatively successful software visualization tools (such as Rigi, Shrimp, JInsight, etc.) are seldom being used except by their developers themselves. In this position paper, based on our own experience and an analysis of the current state and possible future trends of integrated development environments, we put up a non-exhaustive list of features that software visualization tools should possess in the future to have more consideration by mainstream development.

CodeCrawler is a language independent software visu- alization tool. It is mainly targeted at visualizing object- oriented software, and in its newest implementation it has become a general information visualization tool. It has been validated in several industrial case studies over the past few years. It strongly adheres to lightweight princi- ples: CodeCrawler implements and visualizes polymetric views, lightweight visualizations of software enriched with semantic information such as software metrics and source code information.
