A common static software bug detection technique is to use path simulation. Each execution path is simulated using symbolic variables to determine if any software errors could occ...
Software debugging is the process of locating and correcting faulty code. Prior techniques to locate faulty code either use program analysis techniques such as backward dynamic pr...
Traditional dynamic program slicing techniques are code-centric, meaning dependences are introduced between executed statement instances, which gives rise to various problems such...
Program slicing identifies parts of a program that potentially affect a chosen computation. It has many applications in software engineering, including maintenance, evolution and ...
Abstract. Slicing is a program analysis technique that was originally introduced to improve program debugging and understanding. The purpose of a slicing algorithm is to remove the...
