Technical Examples

One embodiment of the present invention provides a monitoring system that detects anomalies in data gathered from sensors in a computer system. During operation, the monitoring system samples data from a plurality of sensors located at various sampling points throughout the computer system. Next, the monitoring system interpolates the data from the sampling points to produce a real-time digitized surface. The monitoring system then subtracts a reference digitized surface from the real-time digitized surface to produce a residual digitized surface. Finally, the monitoring system applies a multi-dimensional sequential probability ratio test (SPRT) to the residual digitized surface to detect anomalies in the residual digitized surface which indicate an impending failure of the computer system.
