Abstract:The advent of modeling in software engineering, like other engineering fields, has revolutionized the formalism and pace of software development. However, software applications are not built from scratch, instead, other existing software artifacts are reused and combined with new artifacts. This notion of software reuse has been in existence for decades. When structural models such as class diagrams are reused, the reusing and reused models often need to be merged and the result visualized to the modeler. Howe… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
