Applying recurrence plots in analysis of computer programs

Recurrence plots are a tool which allow one to analyze and visualize recurrence in non-linear dynamical systems. In this paper it was examined whether recurrence plots could be used to analyze data collected by historic debuggers. Besides a tool that facilitates this kind of analysis was proposed.
