Abstract

Concurrency bugs are becoming increasingly important due to the prevalence of concurrent programs. A fundamental problem of concurrent program bug detection and testing is that the interleaving space is too large to be thoroughly explored. Practical yet effective interleaving coverage criteria are desired to systematically explore the interleaving space and effectively expose concurrency bugs.
