    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that detects anomalous events in a virtual machine. During operation, the system obtains time-series garbage-collection (GC) data collected during execution of a virtual machine in a computer system. Next, the system generates one or more seasonal features from the time-series GC data. The system then uses a sequential-analysis technique to analyze the time-series GC data and the one or more seasonal features for an anomaly in the GC activity of the virtual machine. Finally, the system stores an indication of a potential out-of-memory (OOM) event for the virtual machine based at least in part on identifying the anomaly in the GC activity of the virtual machine.

    Abstract: The disclosed system produces synthetic signals for testing machine-learning systems. During operation, the system generates a set of N composite sinusoidal signals, wherein each of the N composite sinusoidal signals is a combination of multiple constituent sinusoidal signals with different periodicities. Next, the system adds time-varying random noise values to each of the N composite sinusoidal signals, wherein a standard deviation of the time-varying random noise values varies over successive time periods. The system also multiplies each of the N composite sinusoidal signals by time-varying amplitude values, wherein the time-varying amplitude values vary over successive time periods. Finally, the system adds time-varying mean values to each of the N composite sinusoidal signals, wherein the time-varying mean values vary over successive time periods. The time-varying random noise values, amplitude values and mean values can be selected through a roll-of-the-die process from a library of values, which are learned from industry-specific signals.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with detecting feedback control instability in computer thermal controls are described herein. In one embodiment, a method includes for a set of dwell time intervals, wherein the dwell time intervals are associated with a range of periods of time from an initial period to a base period, executing a workload that varies from minimum to maximum over the period on a computer during the dwell time interval; recording telemetry data from the computer during execution of the workload; incrementing the period towards a base period; determining that either the base period is reached or a thermal inertia threshold is reached; and analyzing the recorded telemetry data over the set of dwell time intervals to either (i) detect presence of a feedback control instability in thermal control for the computer; or (ii) confirm feedback control stability in thermal control for the computer.

    Abstract: We describe a system that performs prognostic-surveillance operations based on an inferential model that dynamically adapts to evolving operational characteristics of a monitored asset. During a surveillance mode, the system receives a set of time-series signals gathered from sensors in the monitored asset. Next, the system uses an inferential model to generate estimated values for the set of time-series signals, and then performs a pairwise differencing operation between actual values and the estimated values for the set of time-series signals to produce residuals. Next, the system performs a sequential probability ratio test (SPRT) on the residuals to produce SPRT alarms. When a tripping frequency of the SPRT alarms exceeds a threshold value, which is indicative of an incipient anomaly in the monitored asset, the system triggers an alert. While the prognostic-surveillance system is operating in the surveillance mode, the system incrementally updates the inferential model based on the time-series signals.

    Abstract: During operation, the system uses N sensors to sample an electromagnetic interference (EMI) signal emitted by a target asset while the target asset is running a periodic workload, wherein each of the N sensors has a sensor sampling frequency f, and wherein the N sensors perform sampling operations in a round-robin ordering with phase offsets between successive samples. During the sampling operations, the system performs phase adjustments among the N sensors to maximize phase offsets between successive sensors in the round-robin ordering. Next, the system combines samples obtained through the N sensors to produce a target EMI signal having an EMI signal sampling frequency F=f×N. The system then generates a target EMI fingerprint from the target EMI signal. Finally, the system compares the target EMI fingerprint against a reference EMI fingerprint for the target asset to determine whether the target asset contains any unwanted electronic components.

    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that estimates a remaining useful life (RUL) for a fan. During operation, the system receives telemetry data associated with the fan during operation of the critical asset, wherein the telemetry data includes a fan-speed signal. Next, the system uses the telemetry data to construct a historical fan-speed profile, which indicates a cumulative time that the fan has operated in specific ranges of fan speeds. The system then computes an RUL for the fan based on the historical fan-speed profile and empirical time-to-failure (TTF) data, which indicates a TTF for the same type of fan as a function of fan speed. Finally, when the RUL falls below a threshold, the system generates a notification indicating that the fan needs to be replaced.
