Patent number: 11835944Abstract: Provided is an upgrade evaluation device for calculating cost in relation to the introduction effects of an upgrade menu. The present invention has: a performance data acquisition step for acquiring the performance data of an apparatus; and an effect calculation step for calculating, on the basis of the performance data, introduction effects based on a difference in performance when an improvement function for improving the performance of the apparatus is introduced and when the improvement function is not introduced; the introduction effects being calculated for each of a plurality of points in time in a prescribed period in the effect calculation step. There may also be calculated a cost exchanged between an improvement-function-supply side and the supplied side, the cost being based on the introduction effects calculated in the effect calculation step.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2019Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignee: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventor: Koji Imakita
