  • Patent number: 6725454
    Abstract: A system and method for identifying capacity consumption profiles in a client/server computer system, which include such applications as enterprise resource planning customer relationship planning and supply change management. These profiles may be used for improving the ability to forecast those computer requirements necessary to accommodate a user's future data processing requirements. Additionally, these profiles allow for the categorizing of different types of computer usage for a specific client/server solution in a particular industry, which can provide sizing guidance to new users of these client/server solutions. In the present method, selected available statistics and accounting information are consolidated by a context aware process followed by statistical data analysis. After the desired types of profiles are selected with their available client/server identification, the context of the work effort that is being measured is tracked.
