Abstract
An error logging and analysis system is used to detect a type of error condition, assign a numeric value corresponding to the severity of the error condition, record the time of the error condition, and determine the frequency between subsequent error conditions of the same type. A weighted error rate is generated as a function of the severity of the initial error condition, the frequency of subsequent error conditions, and a percentage of any preceding weighted error rates. These weighted error rates are compared to a predetermined threshold to determine if the error condition is statistically significant.
