Autonomous computing probe agent

摘要

Probing and monitoring of applications in a distributed computer network is achieved using a probe designed to be integrated into the kernel of an operating system. The probe intelligently delegates the periodic probing functionality into the kernel of the operating system. As the operating system already monitors system resources for its own resource allocation purposes, such functionality represents minimal extra computational and network load. The resource probing application on a client machine runs a simple algorithm on the matrix data, depending on the server request.
