ABSTRACT

Gestwicki et. al. proposed the technique that detects and predicts the structure of object diagrams from class diagrams to get the improved drawing of object graphs. Their approach finds two predictable structures - recursive clusters and leaf clusters from class diagrams. Their approach is not practical to be applied to real programs, because the starting point is class diagram.In this work, we improve and implement their technique to apply to Java classes. We obtain the structure and relationships of classes and clusters extracted from class files. This information can be provided and used as a template of object graphs for Java execution visualization tools like JIVE.
