Optimal program execution replay and breakpoints

A method of replaying a recorded sequence of execution steps of a computer program or system to a selected target step while taking a minimal number of execution breaks includes calculating, for each of the steps, a predecessor step that can be reached in a minimal number of execution breaks.

Zusammenfassung:A method of replaying a recorded sequence of execution steps of a computer program or system to a selected target step while taking a minimal number of execution breaks includes calculating, for each of the steps, a predecessor step that can be reached in a minimal number of execution breaks. The total calculation time for the entire execution is linear in the number of steps, and allows subsequent calculation of an optimal path to any selected step to be obtained in time linear in the length of the optimal path.
