Split, Tensor, Dimension, Extension, Homotopy

This lesson introduces the following analysis patterns: split trace, tensor trace, trace dimension, trace extension, and trace homotopy.

Split trace

Some tracing tools can split software traces and logs into several files during long recording. Although this should be done judiciously, it is sometimes necessary. What do we do if we get several trace files and use other analysis tools that cannot do that? If we know that the problem happened just before the tracing was stopped, we can look at the last few files from the file sequence (although we recommend circular trace here). Otherwise, we can convert them into CVS files and import them into Excel, which also supports adjoint threading.
