For debugging and analysing parallel programs there are several tools available, but many of these fail in case of massively-parallel programs with potentially thousands of processes. ...
Conclusion and Future Work We have presented a scalable debugging strategy for massively parallel programs. ...

Many of today's software systems are parallel or concurrent. With the rise of Node.js and more generally event-loop architectures, many systems need to handle concurrency. ...
Therefore, some bugs may never be reproduced in the debugging session, because the conditions to trigger are not reached. ...
The main reason why parallel programs are so difficult to debug is due to their non-determinism. ...
