ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a system and method of parsing system trace information to generate separate timelines of schedulable processes. System operation trace files are accurately parsed into schedulable processes without reliance on explicit context switching information provided by an operating system or trace tool. The invention accurately detects and parses nested event-pairs for display by a visualization tool, and allows a user to view either a nested or unnested visualization.
