SRec and VAST: Visualizing Software with a Student-Centered Aim

Abstract

This paper reviews software visualization focused on the educational environment. Software visualization is a very wide study field, so we have focused on two areas: recursion visualization and parsers’ visualization. The paper contains a retrospective about what has been made on it, what lacks we have found and the solution provided by the authors: SRec and VAST, two software tools trying to make a significant difference between them and the software made before.
