The internal behavior of large-scale software systems cannot be determined on the basis of static (e.g., source code) analysis alone. Kieker provides complementary dynamic analysis capabilities, i.e., monitoring and analyzing a software system’s runtime behavior — enabling Application Performance Monitoring and Architecture Discovery.
Trace analysis tool improved and extended: New internal meta-model, scalable on-the-fly trace reconstruction, … Analysis features: e.g., HTML output of reconstructed system model, computation of trace equivalence classes Visualizations, e.g., hierarchical dependency graphs (operation-, component-, container-level), sequence diagrams, call graphs

The release includes minor changes to the architecture and some bug fixes. We now provide simple ready-to-use examples.
