A message passing compute environment may be visualized by illustrating messages passed within the environment. The messages may contain data consumed by a function or other computational element, and may be used to launch or spawn various computational elements. One visualization may be a force directed graph that has each function as a node, with messages passed as edges of the graph. In some embodiments, the edges may display the number of messages, quantity of data, or other metric by showing the edges as wider or thinner, or by changing the color of the displayed edge. The nodes may be illustrated with different colors, size, or shape to show different aspects. Some embodiments may have a mechanism for storing and playing back changes to the graph over time. |
