Abstract

See full text

A method and system for capturing, organizing, storing, and analyzing manufacturing process information, with storage and performance characteristics suitable for use in resource-constrained embedded devices. Process information is organized into extensible Channels, each of which captures information stored as extensible Events, each of which may include Metric, Category Value, Annotation, and System Fields. Shared Boundaries between Channels make it easier to organize, store, interrelate, analyze, and explore information. Channel Boundary Relationships (e.g., Coupling, Fragmenting, Projecting, and Aggregating) create shared Boundaries; and can create, or be combined to create, sets of Channels that share Boundaries (referred to as a Slice Set). Shared Boundaries and Channel Boundary Relationships facilitate rule-based traversal of Exploration Hierarchies constructed from Channels, Categories, and Metrics, which enable users to view, analyze, interpret, understand, and otherwise benefit from Metrics and other information while traversing groups of Categories.
