    Developing a system that helps system administrators to perform their administration task more effectively and efficiently is of great importance to reduce downtime, cost and man power requirement. The Advanced Remote PC Management Suite facilitates centralized management of PC infrastructure employing the Intel Active Management Technology (AMT). This technology enables the system administrators to monitor and manage computers via a dedicated channel regardless of whether the computer is powered on. This is known as Out-of-Band (OOB) management. Currently AMT is available in Desktops and Laptops with The 2nd generation Intel Core vPro processors. Using features of AMT, the The Advanced Remote PC Management Suite provides a real-time and intelligent asset management facility in addition to monitoring and administration capabilities. The system also features automated operating system deployment and centralized disk cloning mechanisms. It is also possible to isolate any computer in the network using the system, during incidents such as virus infections. Therefore, this system is able to drastically reduce the number of desk-side-visits by system administrators to setup and troubleshoot PCs in large enterprise networks.
