So when the IBM 729 that lives at the the Computer History Museum began having some read-write errors last April, there were any number of things that could be going wrong.

Debugging computers in the 1950s sounds like it wasn’t an easy task. That’s one of the interesting facts from this fascinating talk by [Guy Fedorkow] about the Whirlwind, one of the fir… ...

Debugging is a very important part of writing a good algorithm or computer program and it works best when we check for bugs as we go along, rather than at the end. Let's think about an everyday ...

New Computer Program Automates Chip Debugging Date: November 6, 2007 Source: University of Michigan Summary: Fixing design bugs and wrong wire connections in computer chips after they've been ...

Myers and a graduate student, Andrew Ko, have developed a debugging program that lets users ask questions about computer errors in plain English: Why didn't a program behave as expected?

FogClear automates this debugging process. The computer-aided design tool can catch subtle errors that several months of simulations would still miss.

One would never guess that Ludovico L. de Carlo, who is 65 years old, is a tormented man as he stands on the terrace at sunset, nibbling hors d’oeuvres, laughing with a group of international… ...

U.S. engineering researchers have developed a technology to automate post-silicon computer chip debugging -- fixing design bugs and wrong wire connections.
