OPTIMIZATION ANALYSIS USING SIMILAR FREQUENCIES

摘要

Periodicity similarity between two different tracer objectives may be used to identify additional input parameters to sample. The tracer objectives may be individual portions of a large tracer operation, and each of the tracer objectives may have separate set of input objects for which data may be collected. After collecting data for a tracer objective, other tracer objectives with similar periodicities may be identified. The input objects from the other tracer objectives may be added to a tracer objective and the tracer objective may be executed to determine a statistical significance of the newly added objective. An iterative process may traverse multiple input objects until exhausting possible input objects and a statistically significant set of input objects are identified.

1. A method performed by a computer processor, said method comprising:
receiving an application to instrument; identifying a plurality of trace objectives for said application, said trace objectives comprising trace objects and input parameters; causing said plurality of trace objectives to be executed with said application to generate a plurality of results sets; selecting a first results set generated from a first tracer objective; analyzing said first results set to identify a first frequency; identifying a second trace objective having a second results set comprising said first frequency; identifying a second input parameter in said second trace objective; creating a third trace objective comprising said first trace object and said second input parameter; and causing said third trace objective to be executed.
