Algorithms for Automatically Computing the Causal Paths of Failures
We have proposed an automated debugging technique that explains a failure by computing its causal path leading from the root cause to the failure. Given a failing execution, the te...

Distributed Algorithms for Computing Alternate Paths Avoiding Failed Nodes and Links
A recent study characterizing failures in computer networks shows that transient single element (node/link) failures are the dominant failures in large communication networks like...

Explaining Counterexamples Using Causality
Abstract. When a model does not satisfy a given specification, a counterexample is produced by the model checker to demonstrate the failure. A user must then examine the counterexa...

Using Causality to Diagnose Configuration Bugs
We present a novel method for diagnosing configuration management errors. Our proposed approach deduces the state of a buggy computer by running predicates that test system correc...

Computing in the Presence of Timing Failures
Timing failures refer to a situation where the environment in which a system operates does not behave as expected regarding the timing assumptions, that is, the timing constraints...
