Well, to quote from cscope manual, "cscope is an interactive 
screen-oriented tool that allows the user to browse through C source files
for specified elements of code." In a nut-shell, it is a tool to study the
C code which may span multiple directories.

ctags is ok, but cscope is definitely more useful.
