visualizing windows system traces
Operating system traces contain the detailed behavior of the persistent actions of an application; interactions between multiple applications; and the functioning of the system as a whole. The challenge is that such traces are large and consequently hard to understand and analyze. We present lviz, a novel visualization tool, which meets these challenges. We focus on Windows system traces though our visualization is general. Our visualization is flexible and can be customized to highlight different aspects of the behavior program(s) and the overall operating system.
