   ABSTRACT     = {One of the most important tasks in software maintenance 
      is debugging. To start an interactive debugging session, developers 
      usually set breakpoints in an integrated development environment and 
      navigate through different paths in their debuggers. We started our 
      work by asking what debugging information is useful to share among 
      developers and study two pieces of information: breakpoints (and 
      their locations) and sessions (debugging paths). To answer our 
      question, we introduce the Swarm Debugging concept to frame the 
      sharing of debugging information, the Swarm Debugging Infrastructure 
      (SDI) with which practitioners and researchers can collect and share 
      data about developers' interactive debugging sessions, and the Swarm 
      Debugging Global View (GV) to display debugging paths. Using the SDI, 
      we conducted a large study with professional developers to understand 
      how developers set breakpoints. Using the GV, we also analyzed 
      professional developers in two studies and collected data about their 
      debugging sessions. Our observations and the answers to our research 
      questions suggest that sharing and visualizing debugging data can 
      support debugging activities.}
