A method and system are provided for proposing advice consisting of corrective actions and enhancements to address a detected problem or measured degradation in the operation of a computer based on collected configuration and performance data. After the advice is proposed, the method and/or system automatically detects when and in what form the advice was implemented, and rates the efficacy of the implementation action based on subsequent collection and measurement of performance. The method and/or system is then able to adjust the importance of the advice relative to other advice.

Method and system for adjusting the relative value of system configuration recommendations

An apparatus and method provide for the execution of object-oriented languages, and more particularly increase the performance of Java application execution. The performance increase of Java application execution is achieved by first moving the Java application code into a Java server. The Java server utilizes the application code and functions as a library of classes and methods. The Java server is accessed by an object file (proxy), that is setup to access the correct Java server process. Next, when an application is to be executed, the object file calls the Java server process that forks itself and then has the child server run the already loaded classes and methods. Thus, the Java classes and methods are loaded only once when the Java virtual machine is started. With large classes and methods, it is faster to connect up to the already running Java server and have the already running Java server fork a child server to execute the correct classes and methods than it is to start and load the Java virtual machine, and execute the original classes and methods.

Apparatus and method for increasing the performance of Java programs running on a server

A tracking system that uses a revision control system and configuration status gathering to historically track and store configuration changes in computers and interconnect devices to aid in managing and troubleshooting networks of computer systems. Configuration data is gathered from devices on the network selected for monitoring on a periodic basis. The data collected each collection cycle is stored in a data storehouse on a computer within the network, called the remote support node. The data storehouse is comprised of a revision control system and data base. The data is accessed by computers on the network having web browsers. The user selects a first and second collection time, and any changes in configuration of any monitored devices in the network occurring between these two collection times is displayed in the browser window. By changing the collection times, configuration changes from different collection cycles may be viewed.

Method for tracking configuration changes in networks of computer systems through historical monitoring of configuration status of devices on the network.

An apparatus and method provide the execution of interpreted languages, and more particularly increase the performance of interpreted languages execution in application software. The performance increase of interpreted languages execution is achieved by first moving the interpreted code into one process. This process still utilizes the interpreted code and acts like library of interpreted code routines. Next, when the process is to be executed, the interpreted code process forks itself and then has the child process run the already compiled interpreted code. The advantage of doing this is that the interpreted code in the process is compiled only once, when the process is started. With large interpreted code scripts, it is faster to connect up to the interpreted code process and have it fork a child process to execute the correct code than it is to compile and run the correct code.
