Methods and devices for predictive diagnosis

Abstract

Data can be categorized as facts, information, assumptions and instructions. Activities that generate certain categories of data based on other categories of data by applying knowledge can be categorized as classification, evaluation, interpretation, and implementation. Activities can be driven by a Classification-Assessment-Analysis-Actuation (CARE) control engine. CARE controls and these categorizations can be used to enhance numerous systems, such as diagnostic systems, such as through history keeping, machine learning and automation. Such diagnostic systems may include systems that predict computing system failures based on applying knowledge to system vital signs such as thread or stack segment strength and memory heap usage. These vital signs are facts that can be classified as generating information such as memory leaks, escort effects, or other problems. Classification can involve automatic generation of classes, states, observations, predictions, norms, objects, and processing of sampling intervals of irregular duration.

Problems solved by technology

These difficulties that plague the evolution of computer software may be due in part to the fact that data is often hidden within procedural software code
