Abstract

A resource monitoring method comprises the steps of: generating process information including a process identifier, process user, process name, CPU usage, and IO usage; determining at least one first process having the same process user and process name from among a plurality of processes currently being executed;

generating first group process information including a group process identifier, total CPU usage, and total IO usage of the determined at least one first process; and monitoring resources of the computing device in units of the generated first group process information.

Claims

1. A resource monitoring method, the method being performed on a multitasking based computing apparatus, the method comprising:

(a) generating process information including a process identifier, a process user, a process name, a CPU usage and an IO(Input Output) usage when a computer program is executed and including a process group parameter to the process information, the process group parameter inputted with the process name in an execution procedure of the computer program;

(b) determining at least one first process having a same process user and same process name of a plurality of processes being currently executed;

(c) determining at least one second process from the process information, the at least one second process having a same pattern parameter of the process group parameter;

(d) generating first and second group process information including a group process identifier, a total CPU usage and a total IO(Input Output) usage for each of the determined at least one first and second processes; and

(e) monitoring the resource of the computing apparatus by the generated first and second group process information.

2. The resource monitoring method of claim 1, wherein the method further comprises repeating the (a) step through (e) step by a specific period or upon a user request.

3. The resource monitoring method of claim 1, wherein the (d) step further comprises excluding a process in the second group process information from the generated first group process information to recalculate the total CPU usage and the IO (Input Output) usage.

4. A multitasking based computing apparatus, the apparatus performing resource monitoring, the apparatus comprising:

a process information generating unit configured to generate a process information including a process identifier, a process user, a process name, a CPU usage and an IO(Input Output) usage when a computer program is executed and to include a process group parameter to the process information, the process group parameter inputted with the process name in the execution procedure of the computer program;

a group process information generating unit configured to determine at least one first process having a same process user and same process name of a plurality of processes being currently executed and to determine at least one second process from the process information, the at least one second process having a same pattern parameter of the process group parameter to generate first and second group process information including a group process identifier, a total CPU usage and a total IO(Input Output) usage for each of the determined at least one first and second processes; and

a resource monitoring unit configured to monitor the resource of the computing apparatus by the generated first and second group process information.

5. A multitasking based computing apparatus of claim 4, wherein the group process information generating unit excludes a process in the second group process information from the generated first group process information to recalculate the total CPU usage and the IO (Input Output) usage.
