Abstract: Described herein is a capacity system that predicts capacity needs of a system. The capacity system captures outputs from meters coupled to subsystems within the system, where the outputs are not expressed in standard power units. For each subsystem, the capacity system determines values for a set of conversion factors related to the subsystem. The conversion factors describe the design and operation of the subsystem. The capacity system converts the outputs to standard power units based on the set of conversion factors and simulates behavior of the subsystems based on trends shown by the converted outputs. The capacity system forecasts an expected capacity of the system over a time period and uses the forecast to predict a date during the time period when the subsystem will experience a reduction in capacity.

Abstract: Introduced herein is a computer-implemented system for creating a digital twin of an electrical system using auto-discovery techniques. The system receives power data from meters in an electrical system. For each meter, the system captures a power profile related to a component connected to the meter and creates a set of delta data representing change in power over time. The system detects correlated changes by comparing the sets of delta data and generates a system dataset by combining the sets of delta data. The system detects echoes of power fluctuations of the electrical system from the system dataset. The system creates a digital twin of the electrical system, where the digital twin includes a one-line diagram representing connections between components in the electrical system.

Abstract: A simulator extracts sensor data from multiple systems. The sensor data includes measurements taken by sensors disposed at the multiple systems. The simulator standardizes the sensor data into a common format and classifies the sensor data according to a performance metric. A model of a target system for the performance metric is generated based on the standardized sensor data. The simulator can simulate the impact on the performance metric for a target system based on a simulated change to the multiple systems. The simulator can generate a network interface including a tool that enables end users to interact with the simulation and to determine procedures for mitigating the impact.

Abstract: An apparatus referred to as a profiling server monitor receives data corresponding to the operation of physical hardware in a virtual computing environment. An example is power consumption data. The profiling server monitor analyzes the data received and determines an operation to perform or a business rule to follow in order to, as one example, reduce power consumption of the virtual computing environment.
