  • Patent number: 11442919
    Abstract: According to examples, data reliability analysis may include scanning a component of a data supply chain, and determining, based on the scanning, configurations of the component. Data reliability analysis may further include analyzing the configurations, and detecting, based on the analysis of the configurations, a change in at least one of the configurations. The change may be compared against a corresponding configuration rule to determine whether the change is a defect that affects consistency of data related to the component. In response to a determination that the change is the defect, a solution related to the defect may be determined based on the corresponding configuration rule. A configuration of the component may be modified, based on the solution related to the defect, to correct the defect that affects the consistency of the data.

  • Patent number: 11042128
    Abstract: A method for predicting equipment failure includes receiving parameter sample values associated with parameters of benchmark equipment and operational status information associated with the benchmark equipment. The parameter sample values and operational status information are periodically acquired. A model is generated for relating one or more of the parameters to benchmark equipment failure. For each parameter, a threshold value at which an output of the model indicates benchmark equipment failure is determined. Next, parameters of an equipment under test having parameter sample values that match the determined threshold values are determined. For each determined parameter, benchmark equipment having parameter sample values that match the parameter sample values of the equipment under test that match the determine threshold values are determined. Survivability data for the equipment under test is generated based on survivability data associated with the determined benchmark equipment.

  • Patent number: 10956479
    Abstract: A system creates an abstraction layer surrounding a diverse data system including multiple different databases. Data is received from data sources and ingested into the various databases according to a core model. New instances of the core model are created and added to a larger linked data model (LDM) when new data sources are added to the system. The LDM captures the linkages between different linked data objects and links across different databases. Accordingly, applications are able to access or explore the linked data stored in different databases without prior knowledge of the linking relationships.
