Abstract
A method and system for identifying relevant metrics among metrics that are measured to determine conformance with a service level agreement. The method includes selecting two sets of points, each set representing a given number of measurements for an individual metric and setting a separate threshold for each of the sets of points. The threshold values are selected to produce a set of quadrants so as to maximize distribution of points of intersection of each of the sets of points between a second quadrant and a fourth quadrant in a four-quadrant graph. The method can be performed on a computer system.
