Patent ID: 8924557

Claim:
A system that integrates threshold management into a Service Capability interaction Manager (SCIM), comprising: a plurality of applications, executing on one or more application servers, wherein each application server executes on one or more microprocessors; a SCIM configured to manage a current threshold set by the plurality of applications, and to report a reported met threshold; and wherein each application maintains an associated application threshold, an associated current threshold indicative of the current threshold set by the plurality of applications at the SCIM, and an associated met threshold indicative of a most resent reported met threshold reported by the SCIM; wherein based on an application from the plurality of applications receiving a message from the SCIM including the reported met threshold, the application: updates the associated application threshold accordingly in response to the reported met threshold, determines, in response to the reported met threshold, if the associated application threshold has been met, and if the associated application threshold has been met, executes business logic associated with the associated application threshold and sets a new associated application threshold, and sends a request to the SCIM requesting a new current threshold value be set.
