Abstract :
Program slicing is a viable method to restrict the focus of a task to specific sub-components of a program. Examples of applications include debugging, testing, program comprehension, restructuring, downsizing, and parallelization. The paper discusses different statement deletion based slicing methods, together with algorithms and applications to software engineering
