Abstract
A method for visualizing web service interactions includes invoking a remote operation that causes a plurality of messages to be sent between two components in a connected system. The method further includes visually identifying a swim lane for each of the two components in a graphical display. For each message, a vector is plotted in the graphical display, where the vector extends from the swim lane of the message sender to the swim lane of the message recipient. The relative position of each vector depends on the time when the message was sent. A machine readable medium and an integrated development environment for representing asynchronous web service execution are also provided.
