ABSTRACT:
A method and system for identifying runaway software agents operating in a computer system is disclosed. An operating window is defined for an agent. The operating window specifies the maximum desired operating time for the agent. When an agent begins operation, its start time is recorded. At a later time, a measurement is made comparing the start time and current measurement time to the operating window. If the comparison indicates that the agent has exceeded the operating window, the agent is identified as a runaway agent. The computer system processes data associated with the runaway agent and displays it to a user interface such as a monitor.
