摘要：

In this paper, we describe JHAVE (Java-hosted Algorithm Visualization Environment), a client-server environment for delivering algorithm visualizations over the Web. The first section of the paper briefly summarizes prior research by a variety of investigators into the pedagogical effectiveness of algorithm visualization (AV). The design goals of JHAVE are then placed in the context of this research. After a discussion of some technical details of the JHAVE architecture, we present two examples of algorithm depicted in JHAVE. The results of students' exploring these algorithms with JHAVE are analyzed. We close with a discussion of the general conclusions reached from our current work and future directions in which it may lead.
