V$SESSION
This view lists session information for each current session.
V$PROCESS
This view contains information about the currently active processes. While the LATCHWAIT column indicates what latch a process is waiting for, the LATCHSPIN column indicates what latch a process is spinning on. On multi-processor machines, Oracle processes will spin on a latch before waiting on it.
V$SESSION_WAIT
V$SESSION_WAIT displays the current or last wait for each session.
V$SESSION_LONGOPS
This view displays the status of various operations that run for longer than 6 seconds (in absolute time).
Oracle standard scripts.
Session_waits.sql script uses the v$session_wait view to display a list of the events currently being waited on by active sessions. This is useful when trying to discover what each active session is currently doing.

longops.sql
The use of the dbms_application_info package to register long operations was discussed in a previous section. The longops.sql scripts uses the v$session_longops view to identify and monitor sessions performing long operations, including those registered using the dbms_application_info package.

WHERE s.sid = sl.sid
AND s.serial# = sl.serial#;
Sessions.sql
The sessions.sql script uses the v$session view to provide information about all the sessions currently connected to the database instance. In addition, the v$process view is used to provide the associated operating system process id (SPID) for each session.
