N2  - Developed and supported by most major software and hardware companies, including Cisco, 3COM, Compaq, Dell, and Microsoft, the Common Information Model (CIM) is the emerging industry standard for monitoring and controlling enterprise computing environments. This book, authored by architects of the protocol, is the official guide to understanding using CIM
