Transparent logging as a technique for debugging complex distributed systems
1992
Proceedings of the 5th workshop on ACM SIGOPS European workshop Models and paradigms for distributed systems structuring - EW 5
Preserved Fulltext
In this position paper, we put forth the thesis that logging is a flexible, powerful, and convenient tool for debugging complex distributed systems. We substantiate this thesis in three steps. ...
First, we argue that logging is particularly well suited for debugging distributed systems. Next, we observe that logging is already used in distributed systems for reasons independent of debugging. ...
Logging as a Paradigm for Building Distributed Systems Independent of its value for debugging, logging is valuable in building distributed systems [7] . ...

Formal methods for deciding the properties of service oriented systems are of paramount importance. However, they may require to master sophisticated techniques that programmers may lack. ...
Here, we propose to use causal nets to define a few debugging primitives to drive the analysis of system developed with SC (after Signal Calculus), a process calculus featuring event-notification communication ...

As traditional debug architecture for busbased systems is not readily applicable to identify bugs in NoC-based systems, in this paper, we present a novel debug platform that supports concurrent debug access ...
Experimental results show that the design-for-debug cost for the proposed technique in terms of area and traffic requirements is moderate 1 . ...
Under such circumstances, we propose a debug platform for NoC-based systems as shown in Fig. 1 . ...

This allows for debugging of subtle bugs that appear only after minutes or more of program execution. When a bug occurs within seconds of program startup, repeated debugging sessions suffice. ...
Reversible debugging is preferred for bugs seen only after minutes. This architecture allows for an efficient and easy-to-write snapshot-based reversibe debugger on top of a conventional debugger. ...
