Presentation Transcript

  1. Formal Concept AnalysisofProcedure Call Relations Christopher Taylor

  2. Formal Concept Analysis • Foundations • notion of “concept” in logic(19th Century) • Lattice Theory (~1940’s) • Introduced by Rudolf Wille (1979) • A discrete technique for data analysis and knowledge processing • more suited to problems in our discipline (until law of large numbers takes over)?

  3. Example

  4. Quantum Scheme Interpreter

  5. Finite Automaton Simulator

  6. Future Work • Analyze larger systems (tool limitation) • Compare more systems with similar structure • Automate the concept lattice generation • Analyze some of the deeper lattice properties • what do they tell us about the system structure • Compare concept analysis to other methods • Can knowledge extraction be automated?

  7. Related Work • Assessing Modular Structure of Legacy Code (Christian Lindig and Gregor Snelting) • tried to find module in old systems • Software Reengineering (Gregor Snelting) • further work on modularizing legacy code • All anaylsis is done by manual inspection of generated lattice (if you can’t see it ...)
