A transactional event management structure is implemented in a network computer system. A dynamic system controller resolves proprietary and standard event and message structures into a common format for use by a system for many management purposes. A dynamic system controller in a computer is connected with a plurality of subsystems in the computer for receiving messages from the subsystems, analyzing the messages and determine an effective utilization of the messages as directed by a user or network administrator. The dynamicsystem controller receives messages in different message formats, organizes the messages, and converts the messages into a common format that assists a user, system administrator, or network administrator in utilizing the information contained in the messages. The converted messages in a common format are distributed at the discretion of a user, network administrator, or system administrator based on user needs or message importance to other system administration applications via a selected communication method. The network administrator controls the type of messages that are communicated over the network. A dynamic system controller supports the conversion of messages into the common format to facilitate particular control applications. In one example, the conversion of message to a common format facilitates sophisticated power management operations. The power management operations facilitated by the conversion of messages to a common format enable portable and laptop computers to manage power consumption based on user demand rather than system timing.
