In summary, CoreWatch brings together modern concepts in system monitoring by providing a lightweight,
cross-platform dashboard capable of real-time CPU, GPU, memory, disk, and network analysis. Unlike
traditional tools that require complex setup or focus only on current statistics, CoreWatch leverages
WebSocket-based updates and accurate telemetry collection through psutil and NVIDIA-SMI. With its clean
visualization layer and integrated LSTM prediction model, the system offers a practical, accessible, and
intelligent solution for tracking system performance and anticipating workload spikes across diverse computing
environments.
LITERATURE SURVEY
System monitoring technologies have undergone significant evolution, shifting from basic resource reporting
tools to more intelligent, adaptive, and analytics-driven frameworks. Early monitoring utilities including
Windows Task Manager and Linux top/htop provided essential visibility into CPU and memory usage but
lacked cross-platform consistency, extensibility, and predictive intelligence. They remain limited to real-time
snapshots without offering trend analysis or forecasting capabilities, which are increasingly required in modern,
heterogeneous computing environments.
Recent research emphasizes the need for scalable, real-time monitoring solutions capable of handling diverse
architectures and dynamic workloads. Aldea et al. [1] proposed an integrated monitoring architecture for
heterogeneous networks, highlighting the importance of unified frameworks but also revealing the complexity
and overhead associated with such systems. A broad systematic review by da Costa et al. [3] further confirmed
that most real-time monitoring solutions rely heavily on centralized data pipelines, making them unsuitable for
lightweight or personal systems. These findings underline the demand for monitoring tools that offer both
flexibility and low resource footprints.
In parallel, the rise of cloud and HPC workloads has accelerated research on predictive analytics for resource
utilization. Yildirim [2] and Patel & Bedi [7] demonstrated that machine learning models—including GRU,
LSTM, and attention-based architectures—significantly enhance workload forecasting accuracy in cloud
environments. Similarly, Nashold and Krishnan [6] explored LSTM and SARIMA models for CPU prediction
in cluster systems, reinforcing the value of time-series modeling for proactive performance management. These
studies collectively support the integration of ML-based forecasting in modern monitoring tools—an approach
CoreWatch adopts for CPU prediction.
GPU-aware monitoring has also expanded, especially with the rise of AI and edge computing. Woo [5]
investigated GPU sharing mechanisms for smart city applications, revealing the need for fine-grained GPU
telemetry in distributed systems. Weakley et al. [8] provided insights into GPU characterization across HPC
workloads, showing how GPU metrics correlate strongly with performance bottlenecks. These observations
justify CoreWatch’s GPU monitoring and visualization features via NVIDIA-SMI.
Researchers have also explored visualization and interaction methods for performance analytics. Shilpika et al.
[9] introduced a visual-analytics approach for hardware monitoring using streaming functional data,
emphasizing clarity and interpretability. Additionally, Huang et al. [10] showed how edge-based monitoring
can improve responsiveness and local decision-making, reinforcing the need for lightweight, on-device
telemetry systems similar to CoreWatch’s architecture. Wang and Xing [4] further highlighted the role of AI-
driven CPU resource management in modern operating systems, validating CoreWatch’s choice to include
prediction capabilities.
Despite these advancements, the literature reveals clear gaps in accessibility, low-overhead design, and user-
centered interaction. Most existing tools require complex setup pipelines, high processing overhead, or lack
predictive features. Few provide conversational interfaces or web-based, cross-platform dashboards that remain
lightweight while supporting intelligent analytics. CoreWatch addresses these shortcomings by integrating real-
time telemetry, AI-driven predictions, and a chatbot-driven interaction layer into a unified, resource-efficient
system.
Overall, the surveyed literature collectively underscores the need for a monitoring framework that combines
