Abstract
Methods for generating, storing and processing quality indicating data for a product are described. The method includes collecting operating quality indicating values from at least one component comprised in the product; generating a quality indicating data for each of the operating quality indicating values by normalizing each of the operating quality indicating values to an integer. The quality indicating data indicating how close an operating quality indicating value is to a required quality threshold or how much the operating quality indicating value is above the required quality threshold. The quality indicating data is stored together with other operational data of the component collected for a session representing how the product is operating during a period.
Claims15
A method for generating and storing quality indicating data for a product, the method comprising:
- collecting operating quality indicating values from at least one component comprised in the product;
- generating a quality indicating data for each of the operating quality indicating values by normalizing each of the operating quality indicating values to an integer, wherein the quality indicating data indicating how close an operating quality indicating value is to a required quality threshold or how much the operating quality indicating value is above the required quality threshold;
- and
- storing the quality indicating data together with other operational data of the component collected for a session representing how the product is operating during a period.
A method performed by a central system for processing data from a number of products, the method comprising:
- receiving a number of groups of quality indicating data from the number of products, wherein each group of quality indicating data comprises a collection of quality indicating data for a session representing how a product is operating during a period, and wherein each quality indicating data is generated from an operating quality indicating value of a component comprised in the product by normalizing the operating quality indicating value to an integer indicating how close the operating quality indicating value is to a required quality threshold or how much the operating quality indicating value is above the required quality threshold;
- processing the groups of quality indicating data;
- and
- assessing functional robustness of the component comprised in the product based on the groups of quality indicating data.
