Abstract
Source code files of software applications are scanned or searched to identify dependency information, such as versions of linked or embedded libraries. The dependency information is aggregated from the software applications, and displayed in a graphical user interface that is accessible by a user via web access. The dependency information can be used to prioritize upgrades, maintenance and management of the software applications, such as by prioritizing the update of software applications having older versions of libraries.
