Microsoft.Bcl.Async by: Microsoft

This package enables Visual Studio 2012 projects targeting .NET Framework 4 (with KB2468871), Silverlight 4 and 5, and Windows Phone 7.5 (including any portable library combinations) to use the new 'async' and 'await' keywords. This package also includes Task-based extension methods that allow using some of the existing asynchronous APIs with the new language keywords. Windows Phone 8 projects can use this package to get access to async extension methods for the networking types. This package is not supported in Visual Studio 2010, and is only required for projects targeting .NET Framework 4.5 or .NET for Windows Store apps when consuming a library that uses this package.

Microsoft.Diagnostics.Tracing.TraceEvent by: Microsoft

Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) is a powerful logging mechanism built into the Windows OS and is used extensively in Windows. You can also log ETW events yourself code using the System.Diagnostics.Tracing.EventSource class. The TraceEvent library conains the classes needed to control ETW providers (including .NET EventSources) and parse the events they emit. The library includes -- TraceEventSession which can enable ETW providers, -- EtwTraceEventSource which lets you read the stream of ETW events, and -- TraceLog which is is digested form of ETW events which include decoded stack traces associated with the events. See https://github.com/Microsoft/perfview/blob/master/documentation/TraceEvent/TraceEventLibrary.md for more.
