Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for creating a virtual collaborative space within an intelligent workflow framework. One or more processors of a computer system identify the need for a virtual collaborative space where human interactions can occur to test or optimize the existing workflow and identify triggers for when the virtual collaborative space shall be initiated based on historical learning models trained from instrumentation data generated by the workflow. Responsive to a trigger from the identified triggers, the one or more processors of the computer system alert a first user to enter the virtual collaborative space and initiate the virtual collaborative space. The one or more processors of the computer system replicate a scenario that activated the trigger including identifying parties of interest to the scenario and enable the first user to address an issue in the existing workflow that caused the trigger to occur.

Abstract: In a data communication network a network management station (NMS) (102) constructs a device Management Information Base (MIB) for interfacing with a device (104) to be managed. The device provides an agent (110) that includes a management structure MIB (114) including data describing a device MIB structure supported by the device. The NMS is programmed with an application (108) that can interpret the data of the management structure MIB in order to construct the device MIB. The NMS detects (502) that the device is present on the network, and, in response, accesses (508, 510, 512, 514) the management structure MIB to obtain the data describing the device MIB structure, when the device MIB is not known to the NMS. The NMS application interprets the data describing the device MIB structure, and constructs (516) the device MIB from the interpreted data.
