+WMI is built on top of (D)COM\cite{COMWMI}; it looks like implementing WMI 
+will be possible by implementing a thin layer of (D)COM classes. For the 
+client-side, this should be sufficient. For the server side, 
+using the OpenPegasus \cite{OpenPegasus} backend might be an option, 
+though this would probably require a lot of integration work.
