US Patent 7836062 Performance monitoring method in a distributed processing system

The present invention provides a performance monitoring method of a processing flow that, in a distributed object system, a processing is completed after going by way of processing of several objects through objects. A collector collects, as performance data, a receiving time of a message from the other object and a sending time of a message to the other for an object that becomes a measurement target on each computer. A manager puts received performance data together and calculates and displays a processing time of each object that constitutes a processing flow and a communication time between objects.
