Claim 9:
10. The system of claim 9, wherein the aircraft is from a plurality of aircraft of a type of aircraft, and the electronic device caused to at least:
access a first time series of observations of first variables that describe in-service operation of the aircraft, a second time series of observations of second variables that describe maintenance of the aircraft, and a third time series of observations of third variables that describe at least one of weather or terrain in an environment of the aircraft during the in-service operation and the maintenance of the aircraft;
determine a behavior model of the type of aircraft that is trained to predict the demand for the replacement aircraft part from a training set of observations of the first variables, the second variables and the third variables across the plurality of aircraft of the type of aircraft, the behavior model implemented as a directed acyclic graph of machine learning models that are connected to one another, an output of a first of the machine learning models fed as input to a second of the machine learning models; and
apply the first time series, the second time series, and the third time series to the behavior model to predict the demand for the replacement aircraft part.
