# Executions

The **Executions** tab from [Device View](/platform/user-guide/device-view.md) provides insights into every binary execution that occurred on the device in the last hour. It features the following metrics:

* **Binary** → **Name**: The file name of the displayed binary.
* **Username**: The name of the user account on the local device.
  * [Collector configuration](/platform/configuring_nexthink/bringing-data-into-your-nexthink-instance/deploying-nexthink-in-non-vdi-environment/installing-collector/configuring-collector-level-anonymization.md) is required to populate this field.
* **Device** → **Name**: The name of the device as used by the operating system for identification purposes on the local network.
* **CPU time**: The sum of the CPU time of all the underlying processes during the time bucket (last hour).
  * The CPU time can be much higher than the bucket duration, as multiple processes can run in parallel on several CPU cores.
* **Memory used**: Average memory usage of the executed binary during the time bucket, in bytes.
  * This metric represents the average memory used by all processes running the same binary during the time bucket. The value is weighted by each process’s execution duration.
* **Page faults**: The total number of page faults.
  * Page faults occur when a process tries to access a part of the memory that has not yet been loaded into memory, causing degradation of system performance and execution.
* **Incoming traffic**: The amount of incoming traffic for Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connections only.
* **Outgoing traffic**: The amount of outgoing traffic for TCP and User Datagram Package (UDP) connections.
* **Number of freezes**: The number of execution freezes.
  * The sampling of unresponsive applications every 30 seconds may lead to missed execution freezes.

## Drilling down on specific items <a href="#timeline-drillingdowntospecificeventsinthetimeline" id="timeline-drillingdowntospecificeventsinthetimeline"></a>

You can hover over an item to display the action menu and access additional options, such as opening the [Diagnostics](/platform/user-guide/alerts-and-diagnostics/getting-started-with-diagnostics.md#gettingstartedwithdiagnostics-diagnosticdashboards) dashboard for specific binaries or listing related items or events in [Investigations](/platform/user-guide/investigations.md). Refer to [Analyzing investigations](/platform/user-guide/investigations/analyzing-investigations.md) for more information.

{% hint style="info" %}
The **Actions** rocket icon in the right-side panel allows you to take associated actions from the Device View page on the target device, depending on the user [role](/platform/user-guide/device-view.md#deviceview-requiredpermissionsfordeviceview) permissions.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/device-view/executions.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
