WADEIn II: adaptive explanatory visualization for expressions evaluation

Published: 04 September 2006 Publication History

Abstract

Adaptive visualization and explanatory visualization have been suggested as two approaches to increasing the educational effectiveness of software visualization. This paper presents our work on the integration of adaptive and explanatory visualization. We introduce the motivation behind this research and describe how adaptive, explanatory visualization is implemented in WADEIn II, a system that visualizes the process of expression evaluation in the C programming language.
