Abstract: Experience has shown that tabular expressions [4] can improve the readability of document for conditional function and relation which frequently occur in software documentation, but tabular expressions may still be long and hard to read when the same substructure of a complicated data structure appears in several places in tabular expressions. Parnas proposed the use of aliases to reduce the complexity of tabular expressions. An alias is a short identifier that designates a substructure or a... (Update)
