<p>and deductive inference (test the theory, i.e., the underlying causal mechanisms, with empirical data).</p>

<p>RCA can be decomposed into four steps:<br/>
# Identify and describe the problem clearly<br/>
# Establish a timeline from the normal situation until the problem occurrence<br/>
# Distinguish between the root-cause and other causal factors (e.g., via <a href="page.php?w=event_correlation">event correlation</a>)<br/>
# Establish a <a href="page.php?w=causal_graph">causal graph</a> between the root-cause and the problem.</p>
