Abstract
A system, method and computer-readable storage devices for enhancing the presentation of structured log files. A system configured according to this disclosure can track events of a computing entity. The computing entity can be a state machine, a virtual machine, a thread, a process, a software component, or a hardware component. The computing entity can be any device that generates or contributes to an event log. The events can be tracked from at least one of a structured log file and a stream of event data, for example. The system can identify event types for the events. The system can identify relationships between the events, and generate a sequence diagram of the events. The sequence diagram can include visual indications of the relationships based on the event types. The system can further select an icon for each event from an event-specific icon directory based on event type.
