Abstract

Program slicing has many applications such as program debugging, testing and maintenance We propose a new dynamic slicing technique for distributed object-oriented programs We introduce the notion of Distributed Program Dependence Graph (DPDG) Our dynamic slicing technique uses DPDG as the intermediate program representation and is based on marking and unmarking the edges in the DPDG as and when the dependencies arise and cease during run-time Our approach eliminates the use of trace files and is more efficient than the existing algorithms.
