The management component does not use any procedure call provided by any other component. It provides two procedure calls, manageFunctionInvocation() and manageFunctionTermination(), as documented in the first Management report, and in the JavaDocs available on the Management reports page in the cs519g1 website on babbage. Initially it was thought that these functions should be overloaded to provide greater variety in the accepted values of KeyFunctionArg, but it now appears allowing only a single such parameter, as a String, makes more sense. Instead of taking on the trouble and high code maintenance of overloading the function, the Management functions will require all needed information to be stored in a String, which can be tokenized and parsed on the server side according to some simple format. This will dramatically simplify development and maintenance of the Management code, while imposing only a small additional burden on developers of other components.
