Abstract

A significant part of today's program comprehension research addresses the long and complicated road a developer needs to travel to understand a given piece of code. But perhaps the best way to shorten this road, is by focusing on the eventual moment of enlightenment that marks the end of this road, when the developer actually understands the code and is about to make the required change.
