Abstract :
It is an honor and a pleasure to present the proceedings of the 3rd IEEE Working Conference on Software Visualization. VISSOFT is the premier conference on software visualization and related theory and practices in software comprehension. VISSOFT 2015 has taken place in Bremen, Germany. This conference is the third in line after the recent merger of the ACM Symposium on Software Visualization and the IEEE International Workshop on Visualizing Software for Understanding and Analysis (VISSOFT). VISSOFT 2015 focuses specifically on visualization techniques that draw on aspects of software maintenance, software evolution, program comprehension, reverse engineering and reengineering. As was the case for the first edition of VISSOFT, we are co-located with the 31th International Conference on Software Maintenance and Evolution (ICSME).
