1. A computer-implemented method of managing a machinery monitoring system, said method comprising:
- relating an asset output to at least one asset input;
generating at least one rule based on the relation;
selecting at least one of live asset data, historical asset data, user-supplied asset data, and third party supplied asset data to test the at least one rule;
testing the at least one rule incrementally using the selected asset data; and
monitoring the output of the at least one rule at each increment.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method of managing a machinery monitoring system is provided. The method includes relating an asset output to at least one asset input, generating at least one rule based on the relation, selecting at least one of live asset data, historical asset data, user-supplied asset data, and third party supplied asset data to test the at least one rule, testing the at least one rule incrementally using the selected asset data, and monitoring the output of the at least one rule at each increment.

15. A computer-implemented machinery monitoring system for a plant, said system comprising:
-
a client system comprising a user interface;
a database for storing Rule Sets, wherein the Rule Sets include at least one rule expressed as a relational expression of a real-time data output relative to a real-time data input, wherein the relational expression is specific to a plant asset; and
a processor programmed to control said machinery monitoring system to, said processor programmed to;
prompt a user for a security control password;
generate a plant asset operational rule from an application expert;
test said rule based on at least on of live asset data, historical asset data, user-supplied asset data, and third party supplied data; and
display incremental results of said test. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)

29. A computer program embodied on a computer readable medium for managing a machinery monitoring system using a server system coupled to a client system and a database, said client system including a user interface, said program comprising a code segment that prompts a user for a security control password and then:
-
generates a plant asset operational rule from an application expert;
tests said rule based on at least on of live asset data, historical asset data, user-supplied asset data, and third party supplied data; and
displays incremental results of said test. - View Dependent Claims (30, 31, 32, 33, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42)
