Trace Analysis Patterns (Part 218)

Sunday, February 5th, 2023

Message Complex takes inspiration from simplicial complexes. We select a message, choose TID or ATID, and connect to the nearest messages having the same TID or ATID. This procedure can be repeated for newly connected messages. Then we select another ATID and repeat the procedure. Three connected messages with the same ATID may form a triangle and may also intersect another triangle with a different ATID if they share the same message. A very simple example is illustrated in the following diagram:

Message Complex is more structural and geometric compared to Message Context, which is just a set of surrounding messages regardless of their TID or ATID based on some relationship criteria.
