Conference in Research and Practice in Information Technology Style GuidePage 1Program Comprehension: Investigating the Effects of Naming Style and DocumentationScott Blinman Andy Cockburn Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering University of Canterbury Christchurch New Zealand {sdb47 andy}@cosc.canterbury.ac.nz Abstract In both commercial and academic environments software development frameworks are an important toolin the construction of industrial strength software solutions. Despite the role they play in present daysoftware development little research has gone intounderstanding which aspects of their design influencethe way software developers use frameworks at thesource code level.This paper investigates how the comprehensibility of an applications source code is affected by two factors: thenaming styles for framework interfaces and theavailability of interface documentation. Results showthat using a descriptive interface naming style is an effective way to aid a developers comprehension.Documentation also plays an important role but itincreases the amount of time a developer will spend studying the source code.Keywords: Software development frameworks programcomprehension naming style documentation.1Introduction A Software development framework is an integrated setof reusable software components designed for a specificapplication domain. These components represent a semidefined application which are customised by anapplication developer (user) inorder to build a complete application (Brugali 2000). Development frameworks are often accompanied by anIntegrated Development Environment (IDE) whichprovides the user with a graphical interface for theframeworks functionality. An IDE will generally becomposed of a range of development tools designed toincrease the users productivity. Such tools may include:a documentation viewer debugging tool visualprogramming enviro ...
