The invention pertains to a method of manufacturing a population of parts produced with a manufacturing device, based on the analysis of at least one statistical indicator representative of a characteristic dimension of the parts, according to which: a) a sample comprising a number n of parts is collected from among the parts produced with the manufacturing device; b) the characteristic dimension of each part of the sample is measured, and a measured value of the statistical indicator is calculated for the sample; c) a mathematical expectation of the proportion of parts which are noncompliant with respect to a specification regarding the characteristic dimension is calculated, said calculation being performed on the basis of the measured value of the statistical indicator for the sample collected and of the number n of parts of the sample; d) the mathematical expectation of the proportion of parts that are noncompliant calculated is compared with a threshold value of proportion of noncompliant parts; e) the manufacture of the parts is steered as a function of the results of the comparison of step d).

Information is obtained from a package filling machine, regarding sampling occasions in the form of sampling records. Each sampling record comprises a first time stamp for the sampling occasion, information describing a trigger for the sampling occasion, a number of package samples taken at the sampling occasion, and a second time stamp that specifies when the package samples were taken. Analysis information regarding contaminated package samples is obtained from a package sample analysis system. The sampling records and analysis information are processed to link contaminated package samples with sampling occasions. A table is generated that comprises, for each sampling occasion, the first time stamp, the information that describes a trigger for the sampling occasion, the number of package samples taken at the sampling occasion, the second time stamp and a number of contaminated package samples at the sampling occasion.

A processing system having at least one processor operatively coupled to at least one memory. The processor receives sensor data from the at least one sensor indicating one or more characteristics of the asset. The processor generates, updates, or maintains a digital representation that models the one or more characteristics of the asset. The processor detects a defect of the asset based at least in part on the one or more characteristics. The processor generate an output signal encoding or conveying instructions to provide a recommendation to an operator, to control the at least one robot to address the defect on the asset, or both, based on the defect and the digital representation of the asset.

A method is provided for adjusting settings of environmental devices of a system connected via a network to an automation hub. A prompt is received to start playing content on an appliance of the system during a time period. The content is played during the time period. A profile associated with the content is requested, where the profile includes a set of parameters for the environmental devices. The profile is received during a predetermined period of time. While the environmental devices are in operation, the settings of the environmental devices are adjusted based on the set of parameters.
