Concurrency programming paradigm is the trend, not only because
people's need for performance, but the evolution of hardware as well.
From video games industry, server to even mobile application, they
all benefit from it. But the history of programming language is
earlier than the concept of parallel programming. Even thought most
of language got the ability to write parallel code, it’s still hard
to avoid the complexity. To solve them the developers require certain
knowledge and experience. In the other word, dealing with parallel
program is tough no mater which language you use.
Debugging is hard, debugging parallel program is even harder. To
assist the debugging process developers need tools. Race detector is
one of them.
This research proposes a dynamic race detector which builds on
XThreadDebugger, a tool to help developers debugging thread related
problem which was developed by our lab. Combine with the “exhaustive
testing” ability from XThreadDebugger, we expect to run tests with
higher testing coverage and capture more data race at run time.
