Parameter settings and operational data are received from machines for a current predefined time interval. For each machine, a corresponding health metric value is calculated based on the received operational data and machine health data, and stored in association with the received corresponding parameter settings. Associated unknown health metric values are estimated for machines associated with combinations of parameter settings different from the received parameter settings having at least one of the combinations of parameter settings with an associated previously determined health metric value, and at least one other of the combinations of parameter settings with the associated unknown health metric value, based on the corresponding calculated health metric value and the corresponding previously determined health metric value. Associated parameter settings for at least one healthiest machine and at least one least healthy machine are determined based on the stored health metric values and are automatically adjusted.

Automatic periodic adjustment of equipment parameters to maximize equipment lifetime

A computer-implemented method, a system, and at least one computer-readable storage device are provided. A measured value related to operation of a device is periodically received for each respective reporting period. If the measured value indicates unhealthy operation of the device, a distance of the measured value from a predetermined abnormal threshold is determined and stored in a data store. Based on the determined distance, a number of most recent reporting periods included in a window is determined. All stored distances determined from measured values received before the window of the most recent reporting periods are deleted from the data store. An occurrence of a device failure is determined based on the stored distances in the data store after the deleting. In response to determining the occurrence of the device failure, an action is performed.
