摘要： Embodiments herein select performance indicators from raw data and measure the indicators over at least one time period to extract a time series of data for each of the indicators. The methods filter out redundant indicators to produce a reduced indicator set of time series of data. The embodiments detect correlations among the time series of data within the reduced indicator set by considering time-shifts between the time series of data so as to identify correlated indicators. The method determines a time order among the correlated indicators and determines a causal direction among the correlated indicators based on which of the correlated indicators occurs first in time so as to identify relative leading indicators among the correlated indicators. However, if the correlated indicators occur at approximately a same time, the determining of the causal direction is based on a relative ability of each of the indicators to predict behavior of another of the correlated indicators. The processes of determining the time order and determining the causal direction can comprise applying Dynamic Time Warping and/or Granger Causality techniques to the time series of data.

摘要： A method automatically performs regression testing of output of an altered variable information print job (program). In one embodiment, the method begins by supplying test data to a variable information (VI) print job to produce first sample data. Next, the method applies a numeric generation application to the sample data to produce numerical representations. Then, the VI print job is altered and the same test data is supplied to the altered VI print job to produce second sample data. Again, the numeric generation application is applied to the second sample data to produce more of the numerical representations. The numerical representations are then compared to identify altered data records caused by the altering of the VI print job.

摘要： A VI production system and method for automatic review of variable imaging job output includes a VI interpreter includes raster image processing for producing electronic output document images based on a variable imaging job included in a VI job stream. A proofing process includes obtaining sample document images from the output document images, and for each obtained sample document image, performing a review procedure. The review procedure includes comparing the obtained sample document image to a corresponding expected document image selected from the expected database to determine differences between the obtained sample document image and the corresponding expected document image. Based on at least one difference being determined, the differences are resolved by displaying the obtained sample document image on the user interface, indicating in the displayed sample document image each of the differences, and performing a difference procedure based on an operator input.

摘要： A system and method for accurately communicating color requirements from a customer to a production printer is disclosed. The method and system include a customer end computer workstation including a monitor, a processor, input tools such as a mouse and a keyboard, and a printer; color selector software; and target builder software. The color selector software enables display of an interactive original document on the monitor and the tools enable navigating the displayed original document and tagging at least one critical color of the displayed document. The color selector further enables selection of a color tolerance in connection with each tagged critical color of the displayed document. The target builder software, responsive to selection of a color tolerance for each critical color, creates a series of color charts including a master critical colors chart displaying only the tagged critical colors for the original document, a master color aim chart, and a master color tolerance chart corresponding to critical colors and their associated color tolerances identified in the displayed document. A production end printer is provided for printing at least the critical colors chart and the original document. The customer printer prints the master color aim chart and the master color tolerance chart such that the customer printed charts are compared to the production end printed master critical colors chart for visually determining if the critical colors chart is within the selected color tolerances of the customer printed charts.

摘要： A rule based system can produce a formal product description when only partially specified processing instructions and page description language (PDL) files are available. The PDL files contain product content data and can contain product description data. The partially specified processing instructions can be obtained from PDL file metadata or from other sources such as a Job Definition Format (JDF) Graybox. A knowledge based reasoning module can use the product description data and partially specified processing instructions to produce a formal product description from which a process network can be automatically produced.

Tools enable navigating the displayed original document, tagging at least one critical color of the displayed document, and selection of a color tolerance in connection with each tagged critical color of the displayed document. Target builder software creates a master critical colors chart displaying only tagged critical colors for the original document, a master color aim chart, and a master color tolerance chart of critical colors and associated color tolerances identified in the displayed document.
