Abstract: One or more processors apply rules to a first query to generate a modified query such that processing of the modified query is improved for a first set of processing conditions. One or more processors measure a degree of latency experienced during processing of the modified query under a second set of processing conditions. One or more processors generate other rules to be applied to queries based, at least in part, on the measured degree of latency.

Abstract: One or more processors apply rules to a first query to generate a modified query such that processing of the modified query is optimized for a first set of processing conditions. One or more processors measure a degree of latency experienced during processing of the modified query under a second set of processing conditions. One or more processors generate other rules to be applied to queries based, at least in part, on the measured degree of latency.

Abstract: A method and system for providing a homogeneous view of a distributed common information model (CIM) within a heterogeneous virtual system environment is disclosed. The virtual system environment includes local and remote host systems, each of which includes a CIM Object Model (CIMOM) and a CIM repository of provider applications. The method includes selecting one of the CIMOMs to serve as a single access point to the CIMOMs for all client requests and configuring provider applications of the selected CIMOM to communicate with non-selected CIMOMs. The configuration includes using a discovery or registration process to identify all of the local and remote host systems in the virtual system environment and provide access points between the provider applications of the selected CIMOM and the hosts. In response to a client request, the selected CIMOM uses the access points to retrieve, aggregate, and forward the information to a client application as a homogeneous view.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for managing hardware breakpoints within a computing environment comprising a processor and a memory unit with addressable words being extended using metadata. A setting or deleting of a breakpoint is issued at a specific address within the memory unit by forwarding from the processor to the memory unit the metadata. An addressable word is requested from the memory unit by forwarding a physical address of the addressable word via an address bus from the processor to the memory unit. The physical address is decoded to find the addressable word within the memory unit. Responsive to the metadata associated with the addressable word being available, the metadata is provided to the processor. A checking is made as to whether a breakpoint is set in the metadata. Responsive to the breakpoint being found in the metadata, an interrupt is triggered thereby executing the breakpoint.
