Rolls royce data monitoring tv program

For those of you with access to the BBC iplayer.

Bang Goes the Theory. BBC1 19:30-19:57 Monday 24th March.

Big Data. Series presenting science behind the headlines. "How big data monitors Rolls Royce jet engines."

It may be an education. It may be a dumbed down load of nonsense. If the latter this thread will be deleted by yours truly in embarasment.

Well, not brilliant but some good stuff on data mining through social networking. Perhaps this could be moved to JB or Computer forum.

It belongs in the technical corner unless they screw it up

Having been a consultant on the IT side of RR, I'm amazed they have anything working. The people running the IT stuff are a bunch of utter halfwits, outsourced ones at that haha

The programme did appear to imply that engine data was streamed continuously to R-R, which we know is not the case.

Data can be streamed real-time, but the airline has to choose the option as far as I know. I've seen a presentation given by one of the RR guys professionally, and the system is pretty impressive. It is actually tied into as-built records of every engine, and can dispatch components based on the failures identified via the remote telemetry. They use an IBM EAM software package to support the whole thing.
