Abstract: Model-based diagnosis is a successjill AI technique for locating and identifying faults in technical systems. Extending previous research on model-based diagnosis support for fault search in technical designs, we are building a model-based debugger for Java programs to provide intelligent support for the programmer trying to locate the source of an error. By using one or more models derived from the source code of the program without additional specifications except the Java semantics, the debugger guides the user cowards potential sources for incorrect program behaviors, i.e., bugs.
