Abstract:
A method for determining whether to perform maintenance for an electronic device includes generating a baseline characterization of thermal performance for a heat-generating component of the electronic device at a baseline date. The method also includes generating an assessment characterization of the thermal performance at an assessment date after the baseline date. The method further includes generating a historical trend that includes the baseline characterization and the assessment characterization. Additionally, the method includes determining whether to perform maintenance for the heat-generating component based on the historical trend and a specified maintenance parameter.
