Abstract
There is provided a method for debugging errors in a shared memory. The method comprises executing instrumented machine code of a plurality of processes to generate a recorded execution of each of the plurality of processes for deterministic replay of the recorded execution. The method further comprises logging accesses to the shared memory by each of the plurality of processes in a shared memory log for debugging errors in the shared memory by analysing the recorded executions and the shared memory log. The shared memory log is accessible by each of the plurality of processes.
