Dublin, Ireland (PRWEB) September 6, 2006 -- Headway Software announces Structure101 for Java Version 2 Beta, its structural analysis and architectural control product.

The major release adds the following capabilities:

• A new “Slice” perspective lets you see your whole code-base at any level of composition, for example at the class level, package level or at any design level. It also lets you quickly discover tangles and how they percolate up through the higher levels.
• A matrix representation for large dependency graphs (such as slices).
• “Tagging” of code-level items in order to discover how they roll up through different slices and hierarchies.
• Hiding of model items.

The Structure101 Client and Publisher are currently available for Java on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. The Structure101 Client is priced at $499 per user, while the Structure101 Publisher is priced at $999 per node.
