Runtime Verification and Debugging of Concurrent Software

Zhang, Lu 29 July 2016 (has links)
Our reliance on software has been growing fast over the past decades as the pervasive use of computer and software penetrated not only our daily life but also many critical applications. As the computational power of multi-core processors and other parallel hardware keeps increasing, concurrent software that exploit these parallel computing hardware become crucial for achieving high performance. However, developing correct and efficient concurrent software is a difficult task for programmers due to the inherent nondeterminism in their executions. As a result, concurrency related software bugs are among the most troublesome in practice and have caused severe problems in recent years. In this dissertation, I propose a series of new and fully automated methods for verifying and debugging concurrent software. They cover the detection, prevention, classification, and repair of some important types of bugs in the implementation of concurrent data structures and client-side web applications. These methods can be adopted at various stages of the software development life cycle, to help programmers write concurrent software correctly as well as efficiently. / Ph. D.
