Many researchers have studied the behaviour of successful developerswhile debugging desktop software. In this paper, we investigate theembedded-software debugging by intermediate programmers through anexploratory study. The bugs are semantic low-level errors, and theparticipants are students who completed a real-time operating systemscourse in addition to five other programming courses. We compare between the behaviour involved in successful debugging attempts versus
unsuccessful ones. We describe some characteristics of smooth and successful debugging behaviour.
