A method and apparatus for examining workflow processes can include monitoring system having a definition element that selectively defines one or more workflow process elements of a corresponding workflow, and a monitor element that identifies one or more monitoring parameters for each of the workflow process elements. The system can also include one or more operational aspects of the one or more workflow process elements according to corresponding definitions and monitoring parameters.

Method and apparatus for examining workflow processes

Systems and methods for user-guided iterative node discovery and topology discovery in a network of nodes involved in secure and reliable data transfer.

System and method for multi-level guided node and topology discovery

A data processing system (10) includes processing nodes (12, 18) and submitting nodes (14, 16, 20, 22). Each processing node (12, 18) includes a list of remote proxies (36, 50) and a list of local proxies (38, 52). The remote proxies (36, 50) and local proxies (38, 52) specify access to the storage or processing capabilities of the processing nodes (12, 18) by the submitting nodes (14, 16, 20, 22).
