Lecture#16 Estimation of the system’s dependability The Bonch-Bruevich Saint-Petersburg State University of Telecommunications Series of lectures “Telecommunication networks” Instructor: Prof. Nikolay Sokolov, e-mail: sokolov@niits.ru

Introduction Strictly speaking, dependability should be considered as one of quality aspects. Nevertheless, some specialists consider dependability as an independent term that has the same status as the quality. The dependability is the property of an object to retain, in a course of time, within specified limits values of all parameters, which characterize capability to perform required functions in predetermined for that object regimes and conditions of application, technical maintenance, repairs, storage and transportation. It is obvious, that there is no sense in speaking about object’s dependability during the time periods, when it is withdrawn from operation for execution of scheduled inspections, modernization and other procedures.

International Electrotechnical Commission: http://www.iec.ch (1) Founded in 1906 with British scientist Lord Kelvin as its first president, the IEC has a long history of service to the market. Mission The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is the leading global organization that prepares and publishes international standards for all electrical, electronic and related technologies. These serve as a basis for national standardization and as references when drafting international tenders and contracts. Through its members, the IEC promotes international cooperation on all questions of electrotechnical standardization and related matters, such as the assessment of conformity to standards, in the fields of electricity, electronics and related technologies. The IEC charter embraces all electrotechnologies including electronics, magnetics and electromagnetics, electroacoustics, multimedia, telecommunication, and energy production and distribution, as well as associated general disciplines such as terminology and symbols, electromagnetic compatibility, measurement and performance, dependability, design and development, safety and the environment.

International Electrotechnical Commission: http://www.iec.ch (2) Objectives The Commission's objectives are to: meet the requirements of the global market efficiently ensure primacy and maximum world-wide use of its standards and conformity assessment systems assess and improve the quality of products and services covered by its standards establish the conditions for the interoperability of complex systems increase the efficiency of industrial processes contribute to the improvement of human health and safety contribute to the protection of the environment.

International Electrotechnical Commission: http://www.iec.ch (3) TC 56 (Technical Committee) develops and maintains International Standards in the field of dependability. Dependability is the ability of a product to do its job as and when required without encountering problems. Being dependable means the product has earned the user's trust and can be relied on to perform its intended task. Product dependability does not happen by itself but needs to be designed and built into the product. Properties of dependability include: Reliability – how long the product can do its job without failing. Maintainability – how easy it is to keep the product in good running condition. Maintenance Support – the ability to have the product fixed when failure occurs at acceptable expense and timelines. These are factors of dependability that influence product performance. They are sometimes called dependability performance characteristics.

Calculation of the A value (1)
16
Calculation of the A value (2) Mean time between failures (MTBF) is the mean (average) time between failures of a system, and is often considered the "useful life" of the device i.e. not including 'infant mortality' or 'end of life' if the device is not repairable. Calculations of MTBF assume that a system is "renewed", i.e. fixed, after each failure, and then returned to service immediately after failure. The average time between failing and being returned to service is termed mean down time (MDT) or mean time to repair (MTTR).
