Architecture-Based Run-Time Fault Diagnosis
Abstract. An important step in achieving robustness to run-time faults is the ability to detect and repair problems when they arise in a running system. Effective fault detection a...

Precise Propagation of Fault-Failure Correlations in Program Flow Graphs
Abstract—Statistical fault localization techniques find suspicious faulty program entities in programs by comparing passed and failed executions. Existing studies show that such ...

Cost-effective safety and fault localization using distributed temporal redundancy
Cost pressure is driving vendors of safety-critical systems to integrate previously distributed systems. One natural approach we have previous introduced is On-Demand Redundancy (...

Effective and efficient localization of multiple faults using value replacement
We previously presented a fault localization technique called Value Replacement that repeatedly alters the state of an executing program to locate a faulty statement [9]. The tech...

Fault localization based on information flow coverage
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 ...

Automatic software fault localization using generic program invariants
Despite extensive testing in the development phase, residual defects can be a great threat to dependability in the operational phase. This paper studies the utility of lowcost, ge...
