Create a Decision Matrix For Predictive Maintenance

Create a decision matrix that maps the estimated time, maximum cost, and minimum cost of repairs to specific diagnostic trouble codes (DTC). The decision matrix uses the DTC details sent by Mulesoft as input and triggers an expression set that maps each code to the relevant cost and time estimate. The output is sent to Mulesoft by Automotive Cloud and is in turn shared by Car to Cloud to the driver’s human machine interface (HMI).
