PSE explaining program failures via postmortem static analysis.

PSE explaining program failures via postmortem static analysis.

In this paper, we describe PSE (Postmortem Symbolic Evaluation), a static analysis algorithm that can be used by programmers to diagnose software failures. The algorithm requires minimal information about a failure, namely its kind (e.g. NULL dereference), and its location in the program's sour...
