A Wireless Architecture For Performance Monitoring And Visualization On PDA Devices
Claudio Zunino, Fabrizio Lamberti, Andrea Sanna, Bartolomeo Montrucchio · 2002
Information Visualization requires the merging of data visualization methods, computer graphics solutions and graphics interfaces design. In performance monitoring applications, the use of Information Visualization is essential to guarantee an effective and easy consultation of information. The employment of PDA devices could allow an effective monitoring thanks to the use of wireless technologies but their poor resources have limited their application until now. A wireless PDA-based architecture for cluster performance monitoring and visualization is presented. In this paper the issue of efficient data presentation on PDA devices has been addressed and compared to a traditional Web PC-based approach. The effectiveness of the proposed architecture in a real environment is shown.
