Abstract: In one embodiment, in accordance with the present invention, a method for parallel collection of software license metrics comprises receiving, by one or more processors at a host computer, a software asset management request; interpreting, by one or more processors at the host computer, the software asset management request to generate queries; transmitting, by one or more processors at the host computer, the generated queries to designated network endpoints; receiving, by one or more processors at the host computer, partial results transmitted to the host computer by processing units which form a subset of the network endpoints; and merging, by one or more processors at the host computer, the partial results to form a final response to the received software asset management request.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a computer implemented method, computer program product, and system for creating a prerequisite checklist corresponding to a software application. In one embodiment, in accordance with the present invention, the computer implemented method includes the steps of identifying prerequisites of a software application that are present in source code of the software application, wherein the prerequisites are software and hardware components, and creating a prerequisite checklist that includes the identified prerequisites of the software application, wherein the prerequisite checklist is in a file format that is compatible with prerequisite checking software. In another embodiment, the computer implemented method includes the steps of analyzing a computer system utilizing the created prerequisite checklist as an input file into prerequisite checking software, and determining whether the computer system is capable if installing and running the software application.
