摘要:
A system and method of monitoring and analyzing the performance of a computer system and its components in a data processing network and for proposing changes to the network to improve the performance. The system involves identifying undesirable conditions (sometimes called bottlenecks) in the system, determining which bottlenecks are the most severe in affecting the performance of the system and in proposing changes to the components of the system to improve performance of the network. The present invention uses historical data and forecasting techniques to predict bottlenecks which have not occurred yet but which can be expected, so that further bottlenecks can be projected, along with a prediction interval to indicate the confidence of the prediction. The further projections and the prediction interval are provided in a graph which is available to the user over the Internet, if desired, using HTML and hot links.

A system and method for graphically displaying data from a plurality of selected data sets on a computer system including a display is disclosed. Each selected data set has a plurality of values corresponding to a plurality of parameter values. The method and system include determining a plurality of average values for a plurality of intervals. The plurality of average values are determined for each selected data set. Each of the plurality of average values is determined from a portion of the plurality of values. The portion of the plurality of values correspond to an interval of the plurality of intervals. Each of the plurality of intervals includes a portion of the plurality of parameter values. The method and system further include plotting the average value for each of the plurality of intervals on the display for each selected data set. The average value is depicted as a first symbol.

Described is a mapping function and Graphic User Interface (GUI) for use in an interactive computer system. The GUI is generated by a computer program and includes a view of events or objects associated icons and graphical representations of the objects. A different symbol is overlaid on each icon and a common symbol is overlaid on the graph that relates to the object and associated icon. Consequently, mapping is provided between the objects and graph lines and a viewer can easily associate an object with its associated graph.

Disclosed are embodiments of a method, a system and a computer program product for selecting data to be presented in a report form. A selector window is displayed to a user, the selector window displaying periods of time for indicating those periods of time for which data is available. The periods of time are displayed as a stack of temporally aligned time lines that are each partitioned into time periods of different duration, where each partition of a given time line has a spatial extent that differs from the spatial extent of partitions of other time lines, with longer partitions encompassing a plurality of shorter partitions. In response to the user selecting a point on a time line, the method, system and computer program product displays a report of that data. The method, system and computer program product further display a partition within a time line to comprise a visual indicator to indicate the occurrence of at least one event of interest that occurred during the time that corresponds to that partition. The data may represent computer system performance metric data that includes rolled-up data, and an absence of a displayed partition indicates to the user that the corresponding data is not available.
摘要:
A computer managed communication network with user interactive access via a plurality of display terminals and including a plurality of linked network objects with a system for managing said network in which values of a selected parameter are sensed respectively for each of a plurality of selected objects and stored. The stored data is presented in a graph display including a plurality of icons, each icon representing aspects of said values with respect to one of said selected objects. User interactive means for selecting one of said icons are provided together with means responsive to said selecting means for graphically presenting other aspects of said values. In the monitoring of networks, the invention may be used to track network servers which are monitored via a distribution graph in which icons representative of servers are linked to more detailed line graphs of such servers showing the changes in parameter values versus a time line parameter.
摘要:
A computer system preferably a mobile client computer, optimizes data handling and display through the use of predictive widgets. A predictive widget uses a predictive list of possible entries into a defined field of a form, as in a form filling application, to provide one or both of a predictive default entry for a field or a predictive fill once a user has started an entry into the field. A first predictive widget for a first data field interacts to determine the performance of a second predictive widget for a second field.
摘要:
A musically enhanced computer keyboard (12) (FIG. 3) having a portion 106 (FIG. 5 ) resembling a partial piano style keyboard having a standard "QWERTY" alpha-numeric key arrangement (102) and a modified function key row arrangement (108). Musical information is entered by using the modified function key row (108) (keys (110) through (128)) as the piano style keyboard's black keys and using the symbol and number keys (130) through (158) as the piano style keyboard's white keys. Textual information is entered by depressing an "Alt" key (168) while concurrently depressing a musical note key (keys (110) through (128)) which causes a textual character associated with the particular key being depressed to appear on a display monitor.

Methods and systems that facilitate translation of text associated with application programs (such as word processors, spreadsheets, and design software) into languages other than English are disclosed. At least the key textual terms of the application are isolated from executable program code and stored in separate character-string library files. Independent libraries are maintained for each foreign language into which the program is to be translated. Library entries are accessed by means of a string reader and formatter, which, in response to commands embedded in the application text, loads the appropriate libraries and retrieves the designated terms. The invention replaces text entries, which would otherwise appear alongside program code and require compilation, with commands designating character strings and, if desired, their manner of display as well.
摘要:
A method and system for providing performance analysis on a computer system is disclosed. The computer system includes at least one resource group and at least one node. The method and system include obtaining performance data for a plurality of monitors for the at least one resource group and analyzing the performance data to determine whether performance of the system can be improved using the at least one resource group. Preferably, performance is improved by moving the resource group between nodes. The method and system include graphically displaying the performance data graphically displaying performance data for at least one monitor of the plurality of monitors for the at least one resource group.
