A parallel algorithm for static slicing of concurrent programs: Research Articles

Slicing of concurrent programs is a compute-intensive task. To speed up the slicing process, we have developed a parallel algorithm. For this purpose we used the concurrent control flow graph (CCFG) as the intermediate representation. We used a network of communicating processes to develop our parallel algorithm. We have implemented our parallel algorithm and the experimental results appear promising. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
