1. A method for estimating a remaining equipment life based on a plurality of parameters comprising:
- collecting data relating to the plurality of parameters;
storing the data;
integrating the stored data, wherein the integrating comprises determining a representation for at least one of the plurality of parameters in terms of a unified index indicative of the remaining equipment life and mapping the at least one of the plurality of parameters to the unified index to generate at least one mapped parameter; and
estimating the remaining equipment life using the integrated data.
