See full text

The invention relates to a software maintenance supporting device that analyzes and displays the structure of software, and its object is to divide software into clusters including plural variables and illustrate the result of the division. The software maintenance supporting device extracts variable dependence relation data from a source code, and divides software into clusters including plural variables, using a variable dependence relation. Also, an inter-variable dependence relation is illustrated as a directed graph in which a variable is expressed as a node and a dependence relation is expressed as a link, and variables belonging to the same cluster are highlighted.
