Abstract

Production or development uses of an application may be identified from tracing data when the data fits a heuristic. The heuristic may include length of execution run, number of executions, repeating patterns within the execution run, or other factors. Similarly, prototyping or development uses of an application may be identified by frequent code changes, sporadic uses, low loads, and other factors. The production and development uses of an application may be displayed by a uses versus user graph, where production users may be displayed as those users with the largest number of uses. The tracing data may be gathered by monitoring an entire application or from monitoring functions, modules, subroutines, libraries, interfaces, services, or other portions of an application.
