tracebased
Tracebased, commonly written trace-based, is a term in computer science describing approaches that rely on execution or event traces to study, analyze, or optimize system behavior. A trace is a recorded sequence of events, often with time stamps, such as instruction traces from a processor, log entries from software, or a distributed request trace that follows a user-facing operation across services. Tracebased methods use these traces as evidence to reason about program correctness, performance, or reliability.
In practice, tracebased techniques appear in several domains. In program analysis and debugging, traces reveal how
Data and methodology: trace collection can be achieved via instrumentation, logging, sampling, or kernel-level tracing; traces
Limitations include potential overhead from instrumentation, incomplete traces due to sampling, and privacy concerns from sensitive
