Informationen zum Autor Chris is a programmer at QNX Software Systems with some 40 years of software development experience. His specialty is "Sufficiently Dependable Software," which is software that meets its dependability requirements with the minimum development effort and risk. In particular, he works with software for safety-critical systems that must meet the requirements of international safety standards such as IEC61508, ISO26262, EN50128 and IEC62304. Outside his professional work as a software developer, Chris is the author of several books including "Flying Beyond: The Canadian Commercial Pilot Textbook" and "Embedded Software Development for Safety-Critical Systems." Klappentext A Practical Approach to WBEM/CIM Management describes WBEM/CIM architecture and explores the models developed by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF). It examines the interfaces with which WBEM/CIM code will have to work, and offers examples of applicable models and related code. It introduces components of WBEM architecture, defines models within CIM, and illustrates communication between the WBEM client and server. It also investigates transitioning from SNMP or proprietary systems to the WBEM/CIM approach. The author avoids focusing on details that are bound to change quickly, instead he provides coding examples in openPegasus, which exemplifies many other similar C++ implementations.
