Performance Models of Testability.

Abstract

A multi-level maintenance tier testability evaluation model is developed. This model evaluates analytically the testability parameters at the organizational, intermediate, and the depot levels. In addition, it describes three measures of effectiveness of the performance of the multi-level testability system taking into account the imperfections of the diagnostic system (false alarms, Can Not Duplicate, and Retest Okay). Furthermore, all costs associated with the errors of the diagnostic system are developed and modeled to express the effectiveness of the diagnostic system. These costs are also used to predict the life cycle cost for the equipment taking into account the actual performance of the diagnostic system and the resulting consequences of its imperfections.
