Abstract
Method and system provide visual means to assess the suitability of using a potential system with a target system. The data regarding the target system and one or more potential systems to be used with the target system may be displayed. For each potential system, and for each of one or more criteria regarding the potential system, a suitability level is determined may be represented on a display with a visual indicator, e.g., green, yellow, or red. Thus, the display provides a visual indication of the suitability of the potential systems across the range of criteria.
Claims18
A method of displaying relative system suitability on a display comprising:
- receiving first data regarding a target system;
- receiving second data regarding a first potential system;
- determining a comparison factor using a coolant distribution unit (CDU) efficiency from the second data and a quantity of heat transmitted by the target system determined from the first data;
- determining using the first data, the second data and the comparison factor, a first suitability level associated with using the first potential system with the target system, the first suitability level representing a first indicia of how the first potential system will perform with the target system;
- and
- causing a first dynamic visual indicator representative of the first suitability level to be displayed on the display.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a non-transitory computer readable medium storing a plurality of instructions, which when executed, cause the one or more processors to:
- receive first data regarding a target system;
- receive second data regarding a first potential system;
- determine a comparison factor using a coolant distribution unit (CDU) efficiency from the second data and a quantity of heat transmitted by the target system determined from the first data;
- determine using the first data, the second data and the comparison factor, a first suitability level associated with using the first potential system with the target system, the first suitability level representing a first indicia of how the first potential system will perform with the target system;
- and
- cause a first dynamic visual indicator representative of the first suitability level to be displayed on a display.
A computer program product, comprising a non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable program code embodied therein to be executed by one or more processors, the program code including instructions to:
- receive first data regarding a target system;
- receive second data regarding a first potential system;
- determine a comparison factor using a coolant distribution unit (CDU) efficiency from the second data and a quantity of heat transmitted by the target system determined from the first data;
- determine using the first data, the second data and the comparison factor, a first suitability level associated with using the first potential system with the target system, the first suitability level representing a first indicia of how the first potential system will perform with the target system;
- and
- cause a first dynamic visual indicator representative of the first suitability level to be displayed on the display.
