Abstract(in English) In multi-layer systems such as web applications, locating features is a challenging problem because each feature is often realized through a collaboration of program elements belonging to different layers. This paper proposes a semi-automatic technique to extract correspondence between features and program elements among layers, by merging execution traces of every layer to feed into formal concept analysis. To show the feasibility of our technique, we applied it to a web application which conforms to the typical three-layer architecture of Java EE and discuss its applicability to other layer systems in the real world.
