Software Trace Analysis Patterns Domain Hierarchy
I get many questions on whether software log analysis patterns from Software Diagnostics Institute are OS or platform or product specific. My answer is that they are independent from all of them because they are based on viewing software logs as stories of computation and were discovered by application of narratological analysis (software narratology). In addition to these patterns there exist domain specific problem patterns such as wrong hotfix level or specific product error code during software installation or execution. Typical examples of support for such platform and product specific type of patterns include Microsoft Windows Problem Reporting and Citrix Auto Support.
