Claim Text:
1. A method, in a data processing system, for implementing an operational parameter change within the data processing system based on an identified degradation, the method comprising: identifying one or more degradations existing in the data processing system based on a set of degradation values obtained from a set of degradation sensors; determining whether one or more operational parameters need to be modified based on the one or more identified degradations; and responsive to determining that the one or more operational parameters need to be modified based on the one or more identified degradations, implementing an input change to a one or more control devices in order that the one or more operational parameters are modified wherein the set of degradation values obtained from the set of degradation sensors are adjusted to match an identified characteristic of degradation using a control step_function and wherein the control_step function is at least one of a linear function, a non-linear function, a geometric function, or a logarithmic function.
