Abstract

A computer implemented method for network monitoring includes providing network packet event characterization and analysis for network monitoring that includes supporting summarization and characterization of network packet traces collected across multiple processing elements of different types in a virtual network, including a trace slicing to organize individual packet events into path-based trace slices, a trace characterization to extract at least 2 types of feature matrix describing those trace slices, and a trace analysis to cluster, rank and query packet traces based on metrics of the feature matrix.
