Abstract
A virtual machine system decouples dynamic program analysis from program execution. Program analysis is decoupled from program execution through the use of a virtual machine to record program execution and an analysis platform to replay and analyze the program execution. Optimization techniques are applied to prevent the analysis platform from falling too far behind the program execution platform during replay.
