Abstract: System calls can be used to troubleshoot problems with software services. For example, a system can receive tracing data indicating system calls executed by a group of software services. The system can analyze parameters of the system calls described in the tracing data to identify relationships between the system calls. The system can determine a sequence of system calls between a predefined starting event and a predefined ending event based on the relationships between the system calls. The system can then generate an output to a user indicating the sequence of system calls. The output can be used by the user to troubleshoot a problem associated with executing the plurality of software services.

Abstract: A diagnostic system for determining and predicting service impacts to network connected applications. The diagnostic system stores static variables for each application in the network and receives real-time data for applications in the network. Each static variable comprises a processing time frame that is predetermined and considered an acceptable time for executing an application and a time threshold that is predetermined and considered an acceptable time for executing another application functionally dependent thereon. The real-time data comprise a time delay value for each application and is a measured time for executing an application. The system compares a time delay with a processing time frame for an application. The comparison result is used to determine a service impact for the application. The system predicts a probability of another service impact for a functionally dependent application using an algorithmic model, the service impact, and a time threshold for the dependent application.

Abstract: Systems and methods for intelligent and adaptive testing of a blockchain application to identify compliant code modifications. The method includes the steps of recording requests to and response from a baseline blockchain application receiving the requests from a plurality of application users. The same responses are input into a shadow blockchain application that includes a number of switch selectable new code segments.
