Abstract
Debugging is an important work in software
development. Along with the increasing complexity of the
software debugging process also becomes as simple as the
original. This paper will discuss the generic pattern of
debugging system. Vary approaches and algorithms that have
been proposed to build a good debugger system and easily
used by system developers. The bug can be the caused by
internal or external sources. All debugger software is ideally
fulfil 4 principle Heisenberg principle ie, truthful debugging,
program context information system development and
debugging trails. But actually not all debuggers can meet this
requirement. Debugger also can classify in many ways such as
source-level and machine-level, stand-alone and IDE, 4GL
and 3GL, OS Kernel and Application Level, and Applicationspecific
or in-circuit emulation. Debugger architecture can
typically divide into 5 layers ie the user interface layer, the
kernel layer, OS APIs, OS and CPU, before it touch the user
program. Researchers also proposed many techniques in
debugging methodologies such as Darwin, message oriented,
backtracking approach, and concept assignment (CA).
Implementation of CA opens new opportunities to a proposed
new model of debugging that can leverage into a high level of
software as a part of information system. The CA approach
can implement According to the V-model of software
development approach.
