Title
TRaDe, a topological approach to on-the-fly race detection in java programs
Abstract
Debugging multi-threaded programs is notoriusly hard. Probably the worst type of bug occurring in multi-threaded programs is a data race. There is therefore a great need for tools to automatically detect data races during execution. This article presents, TRaDe, a novel approach to detect races in object-oriented languages using a topological approach. An implementation of TRaDe based on the Sun JVM 1.2.1 is compared with existing tools. TRaDe proves to be a factor 1.6 faster than any known race detection tool for Java and has memory requirements similar to the best competing tools.
