Abstract
The paper presents the results of experiments carried out on identifying abstract data types in existing code by an improved algorithm described in previous work (G. Canfora et al., 1994). It presents a brief description of the improved algorithm and then describes the results of the experiments. It addresses issues in program comprehension from the perspective of software reuse.Keywords
