US Patent 10042734 Context tracing for software logging

Context tracing may be implemented by modifying a call to parameterize, and thereby govern, logging operations of a called software application or program. Resulting messages of the logging operations are stored in a manner that facilitates fast identification and retrieval of the messages. Accordingly, accurate identification of errors or sub-optimal operations of the called software application or program is enabled, thereby enabling correction and/or optimization of operations of the called program.
