Process Supervisor consists of several components that the user should familiarize his or her self with so that he or she may take full advantage of all that this application has to offer. The core engine is separated from the GUI so that it may be easily installed on a network where the client machines may not need the GUI or the server may not need the core engine. The primary applications are listed in the following table.
