ABSTRACT
In this paper, we present two slicing tools: VHDL_Slice and Est_slice that compute static executable slices of VHDL and Esterel programs respectively. The slicers have been tested on a number of small and medium sized examples.

Dynamic Slicing of Statechart Specifications for Reactive Systems
ICICTA '11: Proceedings of the 2011 Fourth International Conference on Intelligent Computation Technology and Automation - Volume 01This paper extends the well-known technique of dynamic slicing to State chart specifications of reactive systems. Dynamic slicing is well known in the domain of sequential transformational programs and has been found to be useful in understanding, ...
Properties of Slicing Definitions
SCAM '09: Proceedings of the 2009 Ninth IEEE International Working Conference on Source Code Analysis and ManipulationWeiser's original papers on slicing defined the concept in an informal way. Since then there have been several attempts to formalise slicing using various formal methods and semantics of programs. In this paper we start by defining some properties that ...
