Abstract: A ground-based computing system receives data of performance parameters for like components disposed on like aircraft, and determines corresponding levels of degradation and rates of change of degradation for the respective like components. A fleet-level of degradation for groups of like components is generated based on analysis of the combined degradations of the like components in the respective group. At least one of a remaining useful lifetime (RUL) and a state-of-health (SOH) for each of the respective like components is determined based on a comparison of the levels of degradation for each of the like components and the fleet-level of degradation of the group of like components. A predicted time for maintenance for each like component is determined based on the corresponding at least one of the RUL and SOH of the like component, thereby enabling cost effective maintenance determinations for components based on a fleet- level information.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to searching or comparing sites. One embodiment is a real estate search-or-compare method based on commute durations. The method efficiently processes public transportation and real estate property data to compute the durations of travel between the real estate properties and the vehicle stops. These durations are stored. A request framework is introduced that allows to express a wide range of search-or-compare requests. During request processing, the method identifies parts of the commute paths that depend on any real estate property. Because durations for these parts were precomputed and stored, the method can determine commute durations to every real estate property in a scalable manner. As a result, the method rapidly responds to requests within the real estate market of one of the largest metropolitan areas in existence today. Other embodiments include: searching or comparing based on a monetary cost, transportation using private cars, and sites other than real estate properties. A computer system and a computer service also embody the method.
