(
SLE 2014
)
T4A: Workbenches
The central contribution is a framework (tooling/workbench support) for constructing domain-specific debuggers via reusable operations and views.
T4D: Interpretation
The work is about inspecting and interacting with running program executions (debugging runtime behavior).
T5H: Usability
A primary motivation is improving developer workflow and reducing the abstraction gap/cognitive load through tailored debugging views.
T5F: Performance
The paper discusses implementation strategies and their performance impact (notably overhead being opt-in).
