SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AN AGNOSTIC SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL STATUS DETERMINATION AND AUTOMATIC MANAGEMENT OF FAILURES

摘要

The non-limiting technology described herein is a failure managing framework for complex systems that determines and restores functionality of failing systems and sub-systems using a function-based intervention approach having ontological content such as provided in a System State Graph directed graph. An integration framework allows integration of multiple intervention definition paradigms and selects the best for the current scenario; modifies procedures according to current context by encapsulating operator's tacit knowledge; provides an additional safety net during application of intervention and allows both autonomous operations and assistance to a human operator in the loop.
