UML class diagram simplification: what is in the developer's mind?

Abstract Class diagrams play an important role in software development. However, in some cases, these diagrams contain a lot of information. This makes it hard for software maintainers to use them to understand a system. In this paper, we aim to discover how to simplify class diagrams in a such way that they make systems easier to understand. To this end, we performed a survey to analyze what type of information software developers find important to include or exclude in order to simplify a class diagram. This survey involved 32 software developers with 75% of the participants having more than 5 years of experience with class diagrams. As the result, we found that the important elements in a class diagram are class relationship, meaningful class names and class properties. We also found that information that should be excluded in a simplified class diagram is GUI related information, private and protected operations, helper classes and library classes. In this survey we also tried to discover what types of features are needed for class diagram simplification tools.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
