Claim One:
1. One or more computer storage media having computer-useable instructions embodied thereon for performing a method for monitoring a process, the method comprising: creating a signature representative of the process; continuously updating the created signature with a weighting scheme; and detecting abnormalities based upon the continuously updated signature, wherein the process is related to usage of networked computing devices in a datacenter, wherein the signature includes information related to time-sensitive averaging that accounts for variation in a business cycle, wherein the weighting scheme consists of a first weighting factor that represents a continuously updated signature weight and a second weighting factor that represents a current data weight, wherein creating a signature comprises accelerated learning through setting a learning responsiveness ratio and incrementally increasing the learning responsiveness ratio until the learning responsiveness ratio reaches a desired value, and wherein the learning responsiveness ratio is equated to the second weighting factor divided by the first weighting factor.
