  • Patent number: 8533688
    Abstract: An interface is provided between a running computer application and a system monitor. The system monitor handles notification messages generated by the computer application. The interface includes an import module to scan a source file, extract notification messages from the source file and store the notification messages in a scan file. The interface includes a manager module to display each notification message in the scan file in a table in a graphical user interface to allow modifications to the data in the table. The data is exported to an export stage. The export module performs any translation required to create a file of the notification messages in a format that is acceptable to the system monitor.

  • Patent number: 7441007
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system and a method that employs a centralized properties server accessible from multiple applications using established computer network protocols. Applications that need configuration variables can make a request to the properties server. The server will then provide configuration values based on the attribute requested. Java applications may request property information by the use of the Java Remote Method Invocation and other applications may request information through a CORBA gateway server.

  • Publication number: 20080095334
    Abstract: A status reporting system (SRS) automatically reports updated status of a project to an interested party based on status information stored in a status system. The SRS is communicatively coupled to the status system and includes a monitoring device that contacts the status system to determine whether such status system has new status information stored therein and obtains such new status information from the status system. An internal mail device receives the obtained status information, ascertains from the received status information the interested party, locates an electronic mail address for the interested party, formats the received status information into a piece of electronic mail which includes the received status information and the located electronic mail address, and forwards the piece of electronic mail to the interested party by way of an electronic mail service.

  • Patent number: 6961878
    Abstract: A system and method for a monitor process is disclosed. The monitor process manages, directs, and retains a record of the output from software applications and the tasks associated with such output. The monitor process does so by determining which notification messages output by the software applications do not match notification messages stored within a system monitor's message database. The monitor process then analyzes the non-matching notification messages using a rule set to determine an appropriate severity and contact list for each message. The monitor process then relays the non-matching notification messages to members of the contact list along with the message's appropriate severity. The monitor process may also be used to assist and encourage members of the contact list to update the system monitor's message database with the non-matching notification messages.

  • Patent number: 6871209
    Abstract: A transaction manager facilitates modification and maintenance of data used to provide information regarding computer communications between computer systems. The transaction manager uses a manager file that contains transaction codes-attribute strings and corresponding action values. The transaction code-attribute strings can include mask characters that act as substitution values. When a transaction takes place requiring information regarding a particular attribute of that transaction be sent, the transaction manager consults the manager file to obtain the action value corresponding to the transaction and attribute, or the transaction code-attribute string containing mask characters that can be substituted for the transaction and attribute. The transaction manager performs the action associated with the action value.
