Reducing the Length of Dynamic and Relevant Slices by Pruning Boolean Expressions

Dynamic and relevant (backward) slicing helps programmers in the debugging process by reducing the number of statements in an execution trace. In this paper, we propose an approach called pruned slicing, which can further reduce the size of slices by reasoning over Boolean expressions. It adds only...
