Distribution Map

Moose comes with the prebuilt Distribution Map visualization. It has first been described in the paper Distribution Map.

One can find the Distribution Map under the Moose menu. The browser is great to visualize a distribution of information across a system. A typical usage consists in analyzing the system, and when you want to highlight a specific information, you create a tag that will be used to color the system. Then, it is possible to open the visualization to investigate the distribution of this information across the system.

The Distribution Map takes as input a collection of container. For instance, propagating classes will display classes as container and their methods and attributes as little square.
