Abstract
A method for determining incorrect behavior of components in a distributed information technology (IT) system includes receiving a pattern useable to indicate an incorrect behavior of a component. An automaton and a complement automaton are constructed based on the pattern, the automaton and complement automaton comprising one or more states. One or more logged events are received, each event in the one or more logged events including a timestamp. Gaps are determined in the one or more logged events. Event matrices are precomputed for the gaps and for each event in the one or more logged events based on the states of the automaton and the complement automaton. The pattern is matched to the one or more logged events by iteratively processing the one or more logged events and the gaps and maintaining a combination matrix. The incorrect behavior is determined based on an output of the pattern matching.
