I borrowed a pattern icon idea from the book I’m reading now: Algorithms in a Nutshell
From now on, every memory dump analysis pattern (and later trace analysis patterns) will have platform-independent pictorial representation. Today we introduce an icon for Multiple Exceptions (user mode) pattern:

Sometimes we have a sequence of Activity Regions with increasing values of Statement Current, like depicted here:
The boundaries of regions may be blurry and arbitrarily drawn. Nevertheless, the current is visibly increasing or decreasing, hence the name of this pattern: Trace Acceleration, by analogy with physical acceleration, second-order derivative. We can also metaphorically use here the notion of a partial derivative for trace statement current and acceleration for Threads of Activity and Adjoint Threads of Activity but whether it is useful remains to be seen.
