Title: Automatic Construction and Updating of Knowledge Base From Log data

Abstract: Software system logs are the primary and most available, sometimes the only available data that record system runtime information, which are critical for software system Operation and Maintenance (O&M). We proposed the TREAT framework, a systematic methodology that can automate the construction and updating of a knowledge base from a continual stream of logs, which aims to as faithfully as possible to reflect the latest states of the assisted software system. The TREAT-powered knowledge base can facilitate various downstream applications, typically fault analysis, and thus help increase the level of autonomy for O&M, saving money and human cost. We evaluated the TREAT framework via fault analysis tasks in a telecommunication network system, and empirical results showed its effectiveness.
