WHY:
By using the AIC and its Application Object model, technology managers can "see inside" their applications, rather than surveying and reviewing them through typical external means. The AIC standard addresses a pressing need for an applications management framework that is both business-process focused and can be applied across a heterogeneous computing environment. This makes the AIC particularly well suited for custom applications that are developed in-house, as it provides a way to instrument and control applications from a business process prospective.HOW: For more information, please contact Amber Carso, McGrath/Power Public Relations (408) 727-0351; email: amberc@mcgpr.com
