A method, related system and apparatus are disclosed. The method is implemented by an operative set of processor executable instructions configured for execution by a processor. The method includes the acts of: determining if a monitoring client is connected to a base through a physical connection; establishing a first communications link between the monitoring client and the base through the physical connection; updating, if necessary, the interface program on the monitoring client and the base through the first communications link; establishing a second communications link between the monitoring client and the base using the first communications link; and communicating data from the base to the monitoring client using the second communications link.

System, method, and apparatus for electronic patient care

Intelligent monitoring systems and methods for virtual environments are disclosed that understand various components of a virtual infrastructure and how the components interact to provide improved performance analysis to users. In certain examples, a monitoring system assesses the performance of virtual machine(s) in the context of the overall performance of the physical server(s) and the environment in which the virtual machine(s) are running. For instance, the monitoring system can track performance metrics over a determined period of time to view changes to the allocation of resources to virtual machines and their location(s) on physical platforms. Moreover, monitoring systems can utilize past performance information from separate virtual environments to project a performance impact resulting from the migration of a virtual machine from one physical platform to another.

Systems and methods for analyzing performance of virtual environments

Systems, methods and computer program products for providing information associated with an attachment (e.g., attachment received through an instant message system, online collaboration tool, electronic message and the like). A sidebar may allow a user to view comprehensive profile and content information associated with the attachment using an attachment information viewer. The sidebar also may allow the user to switch between a message attachment information view (e.g., to facilitate browsing of the document or attachment) and a person profile information view (e.g., to facilitate browsing of personal or public data).

Presentation of Organized Personal and Public Data Using Communication Mediums

In one embodiment, techniques are shown and described relating to a Hidden Markov Model based architecture to monitor network node activities and predict relevant periods. In particular, in one embodiment, a device determines a statistical model for each of one or more singular-node traffic profiles (e.g., based on one or more Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) each corresponding to a respective one of the one or more traffic profiles). By analyzing respective traffic from individual nodes in a computer network, and matching the respective traffic against the statistical model for the one or more traffic profiles, the device may detecting a matching traffic profile for the individual nodes in a computer network. In addition, the device may predict relevant periods of traffic for the individual nodes by extrapolating a most-likely future sequence based on prior respective traffic of the individual nodes and the corresponding matching traffic profile.

Hidden markov model based architecture to monitor network node activities and predict relevant periods

Access to a communications network may be provided via a data provider that may charge for access. In some cases, the access fee may be related to the amount of network resources consumed (e.g., amount of data downloaded or bandwidth used). In some cases, a user may have access to a particular amount of data provider resources and be required to pay an additional fee for using resources in excess of the particular amount. To assist the user in managing his data resource consumption, a resource utilization component may provide different alerts and notices informing the user of current consumption, expected future consumption, and recommendations for reducing data provider resources consumed (e.g., stopping particular processes or data provider requests, such as downloading media). If several electronic devices in a network are connected to the same data provider resources, a network component may manage the data provider resource use among the several electronic devices (e.g., allow only particular users or devices access).

Systems and methods for monitoring data and bandwidth usage

An application service provider (ASP)-based interface and system for analyzing performance and costs of respective enterprise information technology assets from the correlation of metrics data of enterprise SNMP-enabled devices.

System and interface for monitoring information technology assets

The present invention provides a system and method for monitoring global network performance across a public Wide Area Network (WAN), and/or private networking through a secure IPSec gateway, and providing a user interface for performance metrics through a secure Internet browser.

System and method for monitoring global network performance

An agentless software data collector in a customer computer network collects metrics data from managed devices on the network to provide to a remote data center accessed via a public wide area network (WAN) interface. The software data collector collects metrics data, as well as receives real-time queries, such as from a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) initiated from a hosted web interface.
