codemap expertise assessment

Survey to assess your expertise for the codemap case study

 
===================================

Thank you for being interest in this experiment!

Our vision is to provide software developers with a
stable mental model of software. It should be possible
to refer to software parts as up there, down here or
over there. In order to achieve this we provide a map-
like visualization. The map is ordered by symbols and
concepts. The map is embedded in your IDE, so you can
see and use it anytime just like the navi in your car.

We are looking for programmers with Java and Eclipse
experience. You will solve some small tasks, either
with (or, if your are in the control group, without)
the help of the Codemap tool.

The evaluation will take about 2h and take place at
the University of Bern. Snack and drinks are provided.
(If you are a group of participants, we are more than
glad to stop by at your place.)
