Claim 0:
1. A system for clustering events received from a managed infrastructure, comprising:
a processor and a floating point unit, wherein the processor is configured to carry out stored program instructions relative to the floating point unit;
a memory coupled to the processor and the floating point unit executing floating point arithmetic logic instructions by retrieving the instructions from the memory of the system, the floating point unit including one or more of a: floating point adder, multiplier and comparator, wherein one or more input signals are propagated through the floating point unit and a resulting performed operation is a floating point unit output, the floating point unit output including a data word and status information of an event that is a rating of a significance of an event
a first engine is coupled to the processor and memory;
an extraction engine in communication with the managed infrastructure and the first engine, the extraction engine configured to receive managed infrastructure data; and
a signaliser engine that includes one or more of an NMF engine, a k-means clustering engine and a topology proximity engine, the signaliser engine inputting a list of devices and a list a connections between components or nodes in the managed infrastructure, the signaliser engine determining one or more common characteristics and produces one or more clusters of events.
