ABSTRACT:
A distributed and scalable architecture is described to facilitate reactive detection of operational state changes in diverse, heterogeneous objects, logging of detected state-changes, and generating alerts in response to detected state-changes for the purpose of remediation. Such heterogeneous objects include but are not limited to stand-alone workstations, network appliances, files and directories, as well as embedded micro-systems such as digital assistants, cellular devices, and even remotely controlled peripherals such as environmental sensors, effectors and actuators. In one embodiment, user interaction with such diverse objects is facilitated through a homogeneous user-interface metaphor through which, the rules of interaction remain constant independent of the object being monitored.
