Learning from Code History
Why does my program fail? Your version history might have the answer. First, the failure may occur only in the most recent version. If there is some old version which worked, one can narrow down the change that caused the failure. By leveraging automated tests, one can even isolate such changes automatically: "The failure was caused by a change to line 365 in submit.py". Second, your version hi...

Using Influence in Understanding Complex Systems
When a complex production system fails or has some less severe but still undesirable behavior, often the debugging technique of first resort is to examine system logs or other passively gathered signals that might hold important clues about the nature of the problem. By its very nature, this data is normally noisy and incomplete. We define a statistical notion of "influence" between components ...
