VISUALIZATION AND DIAGNOSTIC ANALYSIS OF INTERESTED ELEMENTS OF A COMPLEX SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An apparatus for implementation of a system for visualization and analysis of interested elements of a complex system, the apparatus comprising a processor and a memory storing executable instructions that in response to execution by the processor cause the apparatus to at least:
- receive and process data for a physical instance of a complex system composed of a plurality of elements, the data being received and processed to identify a maintenance message for the complex system, and a diagnostic procedure defined for and associated with the maintenance message, the diagnostic procedure involving or implicating one or more interested elements of the plurality of elements;
generate a visual presentation of at least a portion of the complex system, the visual presentation being digital media and depicting the one or more interested elements and one or more other elements of the plurality of elements; and
apply a visual effect to the one or more interested elements depicted by the visual presentation to distinguish the one or more interested elements from the one or more other elements depicted by the visual presentation.

Abstract
An apparatus is provided for implementation of a system for visualization and diagnostic analysis of a complex system such as an aircraft composed of a plurality of elements. The apparatus may receive and process data for a physical instance of the complex system to identify a maintenance message for the complex system. A diagnostic procedure defined for and associated with the maintenance message, may involve or implicate one or more interested elements of the plurality of elements. The apparatus may generate a visual presentation of at least a portion of the complex system. The visual presentation may be digital media and depict the interested element(s) and one or more other elements of the plurality of elements. And the apparatus may apply a visual effect to the interested element(s) depicted by the visual presentation to distinguish the interested element(s) from the other element(s) depicted by the visual presentation.

13. A computer-readable storage medium that is non-transitory and has computer-readable program code portions stored therein that, in response to execution by a processor, cause an apparatus to at least:
-
receive and process data for a physical instance of a complex system composed of a plurality of elements, the data being received and processed to identify a maintenance message for the complex system, and a diagnostic procedure defined for and associated with the maintenance message, the diagnostic procedure involving or implicating one or more interested elements of the plurality of elements; generate a visual presentation of at least a portion of the complex system, the visual presentation being digital media and depicting the one or more interested elements and one or more other elements of the plurality of elements; and apply a visual effect to the one or more interested elements depicted by the visual presentation to distinguish the one or more interested elements from the one or more other elements depicted by the visual presentation. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
