Remedy Debugger

The Remedy debugger was the first embedded system level <a href="/facts/Debugger/mCe6UsWj">debugger</a> in the world. It offered many features that users take for granted today in the days when having a source level debugger was a luxury. Some of these features include:

<ul><li><a href="/facts/Multiprocessor/aDCfehDQ">Multiprocessor</a> operation</li>
<li>Heterogeneous</li>
<li>Distributed</li>
<li>Dynamic thread view of the system</li>
<li>Synchronized debugging for multiple threads</li>
<li>Trace functions</li>
<li>Operating system resource displays</li>
<li>Source and assembly level debugging</li></ul>
It started as an academic research project (originally called Melody for debugging the <a href="/facts/Harmony_(operating_system)/wmk8YcNq">Harmony Operating System</a>). The results were published in one of the early papers on debugging multiprocessor systems.
The current version of the Unison Operating System continues to use both <a href="/facts/Gdb/nTs958uC">gdb</a> and Remedy debugger.
