abstract = {Well-designed object-oriented programs typically
consist of a few key classes that work tightly
together to provide the bulk of the functionality. As
such, these key classes are excellent starting points
for the program comprehension process. We propose a
technique that uses web-mining principles on
execution traces to discover these important and
tightly interacting classes. Based on two
medium-scale case studies Ñ Apache Ant and Jakarta
JMeter Ñ and detailed architectural information from
its developers, we show that our heuristic does in
fact find a sizeable number of the classes deemed
important by the developers.},
