Software debugging has 2 parts:

a) find the bug - lucky for you a machine does this step automatically

b) fix the bug - once the bug is found this is self explained

Industrial debugging has 2 parts:

a) find the bug - requires going on the production floor and measuring things

b) fix the bug - once the bug is found this is self explained

How are they different?
