System and method for detecting combinations of perfomance indicators associated with a root cause
First Claim
1. Method for detecting combinations of performance indicators that are associated with a root cause, the method comprising:
- storing a plurality of error codes, each representative of at least one performance indicator;
storing descriptive data associated with each of the plurality of error codes, the descriptive data comprising a plurality of module identifiers where each module identifier of the plurality corresponds to a different one of the plurality of error codes;
storing a plurality of root causes, each associated with descriptive data that corresponds to the descriptive data of the plurality of error codes;
identifying error codes from the plurality of error codes that correspond to at least one of the plurality of root causes; and
analyzing error codes that correspond to at least one root cause of the plurality to determine combinations of performance indicators that are associated with the root cause.

Abstract
Methods and system are provided for detecting combinations of performance indicators that are associated with a root cause. The method comprises storing a plurality of error codes, each representative of at least one performance indicator, storing descriptive data associated with each of the plurality of error codes, storing a plurality of root causes, each associated with descriptive data that corresponds to the descriptive data of the plurality of error codes, identifying the error codes from the plurality of error codes that correspond to at least one of the plurality of root causes, and analyzing the error codes that correspond to at least one root cause to determine combinations of performance indicators that are associated with the root cause.

10. A method for detecting combinations of Built-in-Test error codes generated by an electronic system in an aircraft and associated with a root cause, the method comprising:
-
storing a plurality of Built-in-Test error codes, each representative of at least one performance indicator; storing descriptive data associated with each of the plurality of Built-in-Test error codes; storing a plurality of root causes, each associated with descriptive data that corresponds to the descriptive data of the Built-in-Test error codes; storing a plurality of module identifiers wherein each corresponds to a different one of the plurality of root causes; identifying Built-in-Test error codes from the plurality of Built-in-Test error codes that correspond to at least one of the plurality of root causes; and analyzing the Built-in-Test error codes that correspond to at least one root cause to determine combinations of performance indicators that are associated with a predetermined root cause. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A system for detecting patterns of combinations of performance indicators associated with a predetermined root cause, the system comprising:
-
an error code database comprising a plurality of error codes, each representative of at least one performance indicator, and descriptive data for each error code, wherein the descriptive data of the error code database and the root cause database further comprises a plurality of module identifiers; a root cause database comprising a plurality of root causes, each associated with descriptive data that corresponds to the descriptive data of the plurality of error codes; and a processor coupled to the error code database and the root cause database, the processor configured to; identify error codes from the error code database that correspond to at least one of the plurality of root causes from the root cause database; and analyze error codes that correspond to at least one root cause to determine combinations of performance indicators that are associated with the predetermined root cause. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
