ABSTRACT:
Instrumentation logic is provided to map object oriented protocols to efficient data management protocols to provide direct, keyed access to multiple data entries. An object oriented database is utilized to model a complex process since it is easily extended to include tables of transactions for each of the many process steps in a complex operation. The database is accessed through the Desktop Management Interface (DMI) with individual DMI commands issued to get or set each individual entry. An application requiring access to many entries would require detailed knowledge of the database and would need to generate many DMI commands. For such an application, instrumentation logic is provided and is accessed by the application through a normal DMI command. The instrumentation then generates all of the successive DMI commands needed to access multiple entries. The invention is extended by utilizing an additional database management system such as DB2 which provide efficient query/response access to large databases. In such case, the invoked instrumentation logic issues a query to obtain the requested data. In both cases, the instrumentation returns the data utilizing the normal DMI interface.
