Claim One:
1. A computer-implemented method for determining suitable operational settings for a plurality of fluid moving devices, the method comprising: identifying, by an analyzer coupled to a computing apparatus, motifs in utilization data of the plurality of fluid moving devices collected over a time series; obtaining the utilization data as a multivariate time series of data pertaining to the plurality of fluid moving devices; performing a clustering analysis on the multivariate time series data to generate symbolic representations of points contained in a plurality of clusters of the multivariate time series data; calculating, by the analyzer, sustainability metric levels for each of the identified motifs; determining, by the analyzer, the suitable operational settings corresponding to identified motifs that have favorable sustainability metric levels; receiving, by the computing apparatus, the suitable operational settings; and varying, by the computing apparatus, operational settings of the plurality of fluid moving devices to match the suitable operational settings.
