The GSS User Interface for specialists

It describes the User Interface for specialists supporting end-users of the application at hand.

The User Interface for specialists lets them investigate the components of a Session History easily. The Session History consists of the following components:

  1. Incident summary, as supplied by the end-user

  2. Errors as data - we want both an overview of the errors in a session, and per error a stack of active identifiers such as defined parameters and procedures.

  3. Profiler data - we want both an overview of the time taken per procedure, and an overview of the statements in the procedure selected.

  4. Log files - those are not captured by tables, just by text editors.

  5. Case file, containing the contents of the sets, parameters, and variables at the moment the incident was reported by the end-user.

The user interface is shown in the GSS Session History Management below:
