Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research investigated program analysis techniques for software running on cloud environment, in particular, enterprise applications. We developed various techniques including comparison of multiple program executions, detection of behavioral anomalies, and analysis of business data-flow. Those techniques enable developers to automatically identify important components and their behavior in a software system.
