Abstract

A method of tracking execution of activities in a computing environment in which events in an activity are recorded along with an activity identifier uniquely identifying the activity and tying the events to the activity. To track interactions between activities, a correlation identifier may be generated and transferred between the interacting activities as part of the interaction. For each of the activities participating in the interaction, information on an event relating to the interaction is recorded along with the correlation identifier. The correlation identifier thus allows uniquely identifying each interaction which may be used to synchronize streams of events within the activities at points of their interaction. Activities may interact across any boundary, including a network.
