We address three aspects: data extraction, analysis and visualization. We first discuss the challenges of CVS data extraction and storage, and propose a flexible way to deal with CVS implementation inconsistencies. We next present a new technique to enrich the raw data with information about artifacts showing similar evolution. Finally, we propose a visualization backend and show its applicability on industry-size repositories.}, keywords = {argouml, cvs, cvsgrab, evolution visualization, postgresql, software visualization}, isbn = {1-59593-397-2}, doi = {http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/1137983.1137993}, url = {http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/1137983.1137993}, author = {Voinea, Lucian and Telea, Alexandru} }
