D. Tang, H. Hecht, M. Hecht, "A Methodology and Tool for Measurement-Based
Dependability Evaluation of Digital I & C Systems in Critical Applications",
IEEE 1995 Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference, San Francisco,
CA, November, 1995
This paper presents an overview of a measurement-based dependability evaluation
of digital safety systems and describes a software tool under development for it.
The approach is based on measurements on operational systems and dependability models
to provide quantitative assessments for system reliability and availability with
stated confidence levels. A tool is being developed to automate the approach. Experience
in use of the methodology are briefly discussed.
