Reversible Computing in Debugging of Erlang Programs

摘要

Reversible computation is a computing paradigm where execution can progress backward as well as in the usual, forward direction. It has found applications in many areas of computer science, such as circuit design, programing languages, simulation, modeling of biochemical reactions, debugging, and robotics. In this article, we give an overview of reversible computation focusing on its use in reversible debugging of concurrent programs written in the Erlang programing language.
