Understanding Software Dynamics

When software slows down, fails, or behaves unpredictably, understanding what’s really happening under the hood is essential. This expert guide explores the dynamics of time-constrained software systems, from embedded devices to cloud platforms, offering practical techniques for diagnosing and resolving complex performance issues. Learn to trace execution across CPU cores, analyze system interactions, and design better observability into your code. With real-world examples and a powerful open-source tool (KUtrace), this book equips experienced developers to reason clearly about performance and build more reliable systems.
