An Accuracy Analysis of an Ad Hoc Lower Confidence Limit Procedure for System Availability.
Abstract
The accuracy of proposed lower confidence limits for system availability is analyzed. Random values of the lower 100(1-alpha)% confidence limit (A sub SL(alpha)) for system availability are computed for a system whose failure density is exponential and whose repair density is exponential. The system is modeled as an alternating renewal process. The 100(1-alpha) the percentile point of the generated distribution of (A sub SL(alpha)) is compared with system availability as a measure of accuracy for (A sub SL(alpha)).
