Abstract: This paper deals with a tool which may help maintenance managers to schedule maintenance activities. To help them, we show that by using events which can be observed on a process, like maintenance events, we can predict failures before they occur. Principles are based on hypothesis that failure is preceded by a typical sequence of events. We also show that hidden Markov models can be used according to the right choice of parameters.
