Abstract :
An intelligent, knowledge-based maintenance tool is described. The tool is intended to help reduce the amount of time spent on analyzing code. Code analysis is performed when a programmer is familiarizing himself with a piece of code and when the effects of a proposed modification of the code is being assessed. The research project is described, and its theoretical foundation is examined
