Abstract
A method of analyzing problem data from a computer application is disclosed. The method evaluates a memory dump, identifying call stacks within the memory dump that are related to application failures, creates a hash of the identified call stack and adds the hash to a database. The database may then be evaluated to look for trends in the error data such as whether the same call stack is causing problems.
