This paper proposes an empirical approach, called content analysis, to identify the information sought and obtained by programmers as they maintain software systems. Using this information, researchers have the potential to determine the information bottlenecks that programmers encounter as they view representations of their software systems. As such, this work promises both direction and an evaluation framework for those involved in creating software visualization tools.
