The purpose of this project is to implement an appealing and information bearing visu-alization feedback of the lifetime of a software system, based on addition, deletion and modication of the les composing the mentioned system. In particular to visualize the relevant modication of a software project, and changes that occur during collaborative development. This tool is intended to give a visual interpretation to modifications, related to the de-velopment of a project, and monitor the evolution of a software system through time, based on the log les of the SVN versioning system. Given the denition of software visualization: Software Visualization is con- cerned with the static or animated 2-D or 3-D visual representation of information about software systems based on their structure, history, or behavior. Software Visualization sup-ports the understanding of software systems and algorithms and helps identifying their anomalies. The proposed solution is a visual software evolution analysis tool, developed with Pro-cessing 1.0+ programming language, that allows to visualize relevant information and characteristics about the lifetime of a system, in particular: Support the understanding of the software system Analyze the system development to track anomalies Maximize the amount of relevant information about the system i Acknowledgments I want to thank professor Lanza for his patience, support and for the precious ad-vise and my family for their unconditional support, love and patience. Also I’d like to thank all my friends and peers at the faculty, Jacopo, Marco, Daniele, Alessandro, Andi, Alessio, Gilli and Paolo, and part of the academic staff of the faculty, in particula
