Logistics Engineering Analysis Techniques for Fault-Tolerant Avionics Systems.

Abstract

This report presents a technique which performs reliability, supportability, and survivability (RSS) analysis of fault-tolerant, dynamically reconfigurable systems during early design. Implemented in the MIssion REliability Model (MIREM) computer program, this method analyzes the structure of functional components in a system. Use of MIREM will allow design engineers to apply RSS analysis before the design is fixed. Keywords include: communication, fault-tolerant avionics, identification, logistics analysis, mean time between critical failure, and mean time between failure.
