Implementation and Evaluation of Automated Maintainability Assessment

Abstract

This research is part of a multi-disciplinary computer program concerned with design for maintainability. The primary objectives of this component have been 1) to integrate the tools for analyzing maintainability developed earlier into a representative and commonly-used CAD/CAE (computer- aided design/computer-aided engineering) system, and 2) to evaluate the performance of the analysis technique, both from the standpoint of technical accuracy and ease of use. Keywords: AN/GSC-40; SCIAT (Satellite Communications Terminal); Systems analysis.
