| abstract: | | ||
| Program comprehension is a key activity in software development. | ||
| Several visualization approaches such as software maps have been proposed to support programmers in exploring the architecture of software systems. | ||
| However, for the exploration of program behavior, programmers still rely on traditional code browsing and debugging tools to build a mental model of a system’s behavior. | ||
| We propose a novel approach to visualizing program behavior through animated 2.5D object maps that depict particular objects and their interactions from a program trace. | ||
| We describe our implementation and evaluate it for different program traces through an experience report and performance measurements. | ||
| Our results indicate that our approach can benefit program comprehension tasks, but further research is needed to improve scalability and usability. | ||
