[57] In a computer network including a plurality of servers in a server farm, said server farm comprising a logical group of servers administered as a single entity, a method for managing runtime data, the method comprising the steps of: designating one of the plurality of servers in the server farm as a first collector point for collecting said runtime data of a first type; defining a first zone including a subset of the plurality of servers, the subset including the first collector point, and identifying a zone manager master for the first zone, and directing the runtime data of the first type to the first collector point for storage.

APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SPATIO-TEMPORAL ALIGNMENT OF IMAGE SEQUENCES
[57] A method for aligning in at least one of time and space temporally ordered sequences of images comprising: receiving a plurality of sequences of images, each sequence containing a multiplicity of images, each of said plurality of sequences defining a space-time volume; and providing an output indication relating at least one point in a space-time volume corresponding to one of said plurality of sequences to at least one point in a space-time volume corresponding to at least another one of said plurality of sequences. Said providing an output indication preferably comprises: finding at least one global alignment in at least one of time and space between at least a portion of a first space-time volume corresponding to one of said plurality of sequences and at least a portion of a second space-time volume corresponding to at least another one of said plurality of sequences, which said at least one global alignment matches spatial-temporal variations occurring at plural locations in said first space-time volume to spatial-temporal variations occurring at plural locations in said second space-time volume.
