Abstract

The present invention provides information for making a decision so as to efficiently localize environment-dependent portions of a program. Man-hours required to localize the environment-dependent portions are calculated by means of a unique method using program structure data and environment-dependent portions data. An effect of localizing the environment-dependent portions is calculated and visualized based on a Lorenz curve and a Gini coefficient.
