Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for monitoring all levels of information technology and computing resources from low-level hardware up to enterprise level applications and their relation to business processes and business services, and alerting responsible personnel by giving them decision support by visual feedback using color cross-fading graphical objects showing parameter status and monitored resource status multi-colored by a scheme, which is determined by applying fuzzy logic to the raw monitored indicator parameter values and derived or propagated status attributes and by triggering events derived from fuzzy logic based analysis of raw measured parameter values and derived or propagated status attributes and raw events raised outside the apparatus.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for monitoring all levels of information technology from low-level hardware up to enterprise level applications and their relation to business processes and business services, and alerting responsible personnel by giving them visual feedback using a phased multicolor display showing indicator status and monitored object status colored by a scheme, which is determined by applying fuzzy logic to the raw monitored indicator values and derived or propagated status attributes and by triggering events derived from fuzzy logic based analysis of raw measured indicator values and derived or propagated status attributes and raw events raised outside the apparatus.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sanitary fitting comprising at least one supply pipe (1, 2) and/or one connecting element (10) for connection to a connecting pipe or a flexible hose, in addition to at least one fitting component (5) with an accommodating opening (3, 4) for the supply pipe (1, 2) or connecting element (10), whereby the supply pipe (1, 2) or the connecting element (10) is provided with a supporting rim (6) which rests against the component (5) and is arranged in the accommodating opening (3, 4) of the component (5) and securely connected thereto (5). In order to connect the supply pipe (1, 2) or connecting element (10) to the component (5) of the sanitary fitting in a simple, economical manner, the supply pipe (1, 2) or connecting element (10, 11) is engaged in the accommodating opening (3, 4) of the component by means of a flange (7) which is located at a specific distance from the supporting rim (6).
