Abstract

This paper outlines a new technique for collecting dynamic trace information from Java GUI programs. The problems of collecting run-time information from such interactive applications in comparison with traditional batch style execution benchmark programs is outlined. The possible utility of such run-time information is discussed and from this a number of simple run-time metrics are suggested. The metrics results for a small CelsiusConverter Java GUI program are illustrated to demonstrate the viability of such an analysis.
