  • Software Agent Building and Learning Environment— A Java framework, component library, and productivity tool kit for building intelligent agents using machine learning and reasoning.

  • Business Workload Manager— A technology that provides the basis for instrumentation of applications in support of autonomic management.

  • Conversation Support for Web Services— A technology that proposes and implements a conversational model of e-business interaction.

  • Emerging Technologies Toolkit— A software development kit for designing, developing, and executing emerging autonomic and grid-related technologies and Web services.

  • Generic Log Adapter— A rule-based tool that transforms software log events into standard situational event formats in the autonomic computing architectures.
