International audienceThe growing complexity of embedded systems makes their behavior analysis a challenging task. In this context, tracing appears to be a promising solution as it provides relevant information about the system execution. However, trace management and analysis are hindered by the diversity of trace formats, the incompatibility of trace analysis methods, the problem of trace size and its storage as well as by the lack of visualization scalability. In this article we present FrameSoC, a new trace management infrastructure that solves these issues. It proposes generic solutions for trace storage and defines interfaces and plug in mechanisms for integrating diverse analysis tools. We illustrate the benefit of FrameSoC with a case study of a visualization module that provides representation scalability for large traces by using an aggregation algorithm
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
