Failures triggered by hard to debug defects usually involve complex interactions between many program elements. We hypothesize that information flows present a good model for such ...
Abstract: A probabilistic event-driven fault localization technique is presented, which uses a symptom-fault map as a fault propagation model. The technique isolates the most proba...
End-user programmers are writing an unprecedented number of programs, due in large part to the significant effort put forth to bring programming power to end users. Unfortunately,...

We propose a new fault localization technique for software bugs in large-scale computing systems. Our technique always collects per-process function call traces of a target system...
