    摘要: Method for monitoring devices in a network, computerized system and application program interface
    A Method for monitoring devices (2) generating event data items (EDI) comprises:
    classifying events into meaningful and meaningless events according to a predetermined set of rules; and
    discarding event data items (EDI) that are classified as meaningless events for generating a reduced set (RDS) of event data items (EDI); and/or
    counting the event data items (EDI) per event description (DES) for calculating numbers of occurrences (NO), and identifying a top event description having the highest number of occurrence; and/or
    identifying an interval (TI) where an elevated number of events (ENO) occurs; and/or
    applying a sequence pattern mining process (SPM) to the set/reduced set of event data items (DS) as a function of the top or target event description and/or the identified time interval for detecting frequently occurring sequences of events; and
    through an application program interface (6, 10), providing the reduced set of event data items (RDS), the numbers of occurrences (NO), the identified time intervals (TI) and/or the detected frequently occurring sequences of events in response to a request (REQ).
    An application program interface with analytics functions on event data allows for efficient event data mining.
