Towards seamless semantic zooming techniques for UML diagrams
Mathias Frisch, Raimund Dachselt, Tobias Brückmann · 2008
Models become increasingly important for software development processes. Though there is a multitude of software modeling tools available, the handling of complex UML diagrams is still difficult. In particular, the visualization of a global overview and of logical interrelationships between certain elements arising from refinements of diagrams can be improved. We address these problems and propose the usage of semantic zooming with different levels of detail and describe intuitive interaction techniques to ease the navigation between different diagrams in software models.
