Patent number: 10073760Abstract: In a general aspect, a tracer is configured to instrument an application by injecting at least one interrupt instruction at a function entry point in a memory image of the application such that executable code of the application is not modified. The tracer is configured to collect information relating to execution of the application when the inserted at least one interrupt instruction is triggered during runtime of the application including tracing at least one operating system function used by the application at the function entry point. The tracer is configured to create an application signature based on the collected information. The application signature provides information about at least one system object accessed by the at least one operating system function.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2014Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: Indentify Software Ltd. (IL)Inventors: Valery Golender, Ido Ben Moshe, Shlomo Wygodny

Patent number: 8762958Abstract: A software system is disclosed which facilitates the process of tracing the execution paths of a program, called a client or application. Trace data corresponding to selected system resources that interact with the execution of the application is collected during the tracing operation and stored in an application signature. A computer system user can generate trace options, trace the application, and compare the application signature to a known software configuration. The application signature is compared to a reference signature created by tracing the execution of the application on a system with the known software configuration. In another embodiment, the application signature is compared to a static configuration of a reference computer.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2008Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: Identify Software, Ltd.Inventors: Valery Golender, Ido Ben Moshe, Shlomo Wygodny

Patent number: 8504994Abstract: A software system is disclosed that provides remote troubleshooting and tracing of the execution of computer programs. The software system includes an information-gathering module that gathers run-time information about program execution, program interaction with the operating system and the system resources, monitors user actions and captures screen output, and passes the gathered information to an information-display module, the gathered information allowing a support technician (e.g., a software developer, a help desk person, etc.) to see the user interactions with the program and corresponding reactions of the system, and/or to remotely view environment variables, file access operations, system interactions, and user interactions that occur on the user's computer and locate failed operations that cause execution problems.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2009Date of Patent: August 6, 2013Assignee: Identify Software, Ltd.Inventors: Valery Golender, Ido Ben Moshe, Shlomo Wygodny

Patent number: 8312435Abstract: A software system is disclosed which facilitates the process of tracing the execution paths of a program, called the client. The tracing is performed without requiring modifications to the executable or source code files of the client. Trace data collected during the tracing operation is collected according to instructions in a trace options file. At run time, the tracing library attaches to the memory image of the client. The tracing library is configured to monitor execution of the client and to collect trace data, based on selections in the trace options file. Conditional tracing, through the use of triggers and actions taken in response to the triggers, allows the developer to control the tracing operation. The triggers can be conditional triggers in which the corresponding action is taken only if a conditional expression is satisfied. The system can trace multiple threads and multiple processes. The tracing system provides a remote mode and an online mode.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2006Date of Patent: November 13, 2012Assignee: Identify Software Ltd.

Publication number: 20100088683Abstract: A software system is disclosed that provides remote troubleshooting and tracing of the execution of computer programs. The software system allows a remote software developer or help desk person to troubleshoot computer environment and installation problems such as missing or corrupted environment variables, files, DLLs, registry entries, and the like. In one embodiment the software system includes an information-gathering module that gathers run-time information about program execution, program interaction with the operating system and the system resources. The information-gathering module also monitors user actions and captures screen output. The information-gathering module passes the gathered information to an information-display module. The information-display module allows a support technician (e.g., a software developer, a help desk person, etc.) to see the user interactions with the program and corresponding reactions of the system.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 7, 2009Publication date: April 8, 2010Applicant: Identify Software, Ltd.Inventors: Valery Golender, Ido Ben Moshe, Shlomo Wygodny
