LATENCY TOLERANT FAULT ISOLATION
First Claim
1. A method of latency tolerant fault isolation, comprising:
- receiving, by a maintenance data computer, evidence associated with a test failure;
accessing, by the maintenance data computer, metadata to identify a system failure mode associated with the evidence and other potential evidence associated with the system failure mode;
determining, by the maintenance data computer, a maximum predicted latency to receive the potential evidence associated with the system failure mode based on the metadata;
waiting up to the maximum predicted latency to determine whether one or more instances of the potential evidence associated with the system failure mode are received as additional evidence; and
diagnosing the system failure mode as a fault, by the maintenance data computer, based on the evidence and the additional evidence.

Abstract
A method of latency tolerant fault isolation is provided. The method includes receiving, by a maintenance data computer, evidence associated with a test failure. The maintenance data computer accesses metadata to identify a system failure mode associated with the evidence and other potential evidence associated with the system failure mode. The maintenance data computer determines a maximum predicted latency to receive the potential evidence associated with the system failure mode based on the metadata. The method also includes waiting up to the maximum predicted latency to determine whether one or more instances of the potential evidence associated with the system failure mode are received as additional evidence. The maintenance data computer diagnoses the system failure mode as a fault based on the evidence and the additional evidence.
