SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR UNIVERSAL COMPUTER ASSET NORMALIZATION AND CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240231909 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR UNIVERSAL COMPUTER ASSET NORMALIZATION AND CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT
The patent application describes a system and method for universal computer asset normalization and configuration management using metadata and provenance information.
- The system includes an asset registry with provenance and ontological information, a provenance manager for data validation, an ontology manager for asset relationships, and an interoperability manager for suggesting assets in a given context.
Potential Applications: - IT asset management - Data center optimization - Cloud computing resource allocation
Problems Solved: - Lack of standardized asset management - Difficulty in contextualizing computing assets - Inefficient resource allocation
Benefits: - Improved asset organization - Enhanced data validation - Optimized resource allocation
Commercial Applications: - Software companies - IT service providers - Data centers
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the system track the provenance of computing assets? The provenance manager tracks the history and origin of each asset for validation and analysis purposes.
2. How does the ontology manager determine the relationships among assets? The ontology manager uses ontological relationships to identify other domains where an asset may be useful.
Original Abstract Submitted
a system and method for universal computer asset normalization and configuration management that utilizes structure, organization, and ontologically-related metadata to unify computing assets into a common data model combined with provenance-related metadata to contextualize the assets for suitability in a given situation. the system and method include an asset registry that contains provenance information and ontological information about available computing assets, a provenance manager which tracks the provenance of each asset for data validation and contextual analysis purposes, an ontology manager that uses ontological relationships among assets to determine other domains in which an asset may be useful, and an interoperability manager which combines the provenance and ontology outputs to suggest computing assets that may be useful in a given context.
