About PAS

PAS (Partitioned Annotations of Software) is a Web based medium that records a programmer's comprehension of a particular program and makes it available to the programmer's teammates.  PAS divides annotations for individual software components into specialized partitions so programmers can easily find the specific information they need.
Prototype PAS was developed at WayneStateUniversity. PAS parses the program files and provides a user friendly GUI to browse through classes and functions to create partitions.
The first version of PAS was developed in C++ for C++ programs.
The second version of PAS was developed in Java for Java programs.  It is a doclet and it utilizes the javadoc parser.
