Models and Methodology for Life Cycle Cost and Test and Evaluation Analysis

Abstract

This report documents various models and methodology which were developed during the course of some analytical studies on life cycle cost and test and evaluation. These studies were conducted by the Office of the Assistant for Study Support (OAS) at the request of DCS/Development Plans, Headquarters AFSC. The objectives of the study were to: Investigate the present methods of subsystem reliability specification and identify limitations associated with these methods; investigate new and innovative techniques for subsystem reliability management and identify benefits to be derived in terms of higher performance/lower costs; and, develop models and methodology applicable to life cycle cost and test and evaluation analyses.
