SUM 4 Java® Threads Analyzer can be installed on one or multiple machines. The Enterprise Edition of SUM4JTA, aslo known as "SUM Knowledge Station" version allows for the accumulation of knowledge obtained from individual "SUM Enabled machines" running Standard Edition versions if SUM4Java:

• Standard Edition - SUM Enabled machines
• Enterprise Edition - SUM Knowledge Station machines

Each version has the ability to run SUM Enabled java processes and see the result of SUM4JTA Analysis (that is, of course, when the SUM Enabled machine has a GUI capabilities)

1. As a knowledge accumulation station, a “mother ship”, it collects automatically analyzed knowledge of race conditions passed to it from different Java processes running on multiple SUM Enabled machines.
2. It displays the results of collectively analyzed knowledge.

A user has the choice of running Java applications in traditional (Black Box) mode, or in SUM Enabled mode.  SUM Enabled Java applications are automatically analyzed for Race Conditions with 0% False Positive Analysis rate covering 100% of all experienced Race Conditions.

Multiple SUM Enabled machines can report their knowledge to one SUM Knowledge Station machine. The knowledge originally aggregated within the SUM Enabled Machines with repect to processes running their is then further aggregated within the Knowledge Station machine with respect to the experience of different SUM Enabled machines.

The following configuration works best when many machines, not necessarily equipped with a Graphical User Interface, are configured as Sum Enabled machines.  These machines could be your servers or other un-attended machines:
