Object Flow Analysis

- 2. Object FlowAnalysis —Taking an Object-centricView on DynamicAnalysis :: Adrian Lienhard :: lienhard@iam.unibe.ch A missing aspect of OO dynamic analysis Typical characterization of OO program execution: 1) message passing 2) object interrelationships How are objects passed throught the system?
