Modeling for Reliability Analysis: Markov Modeling for Reliability, Maintainability, Safety, and Supportability Analyses of Complex Systems

by Paul Pukite and Jan Pukite

"Markov modeling has long been accepted as a fundamental and powerful technique for the fault tolerance analysis of mission-critical applications. However, the elaborate computations required have often made Markov modeling too time-consuming to be of practical use on these complex systems. With this hands-on tool, designers can use the Markov modeling technique to analyze safety, reliability, maintainability, and cost-effectiveness factors in the...

Software is free

Sorry Larry for the lack of response. Such is the life-cycle of free software. However, finally a new downloadable software package which supports recent Windows releases is available from HERE.

Modeling for Reliability Analysis

1. Book is for new complex computer systems. However I use in support of an aging Naval Aviation Aircraft ( A/C ). I am no mathematician, however with my trusty ERA books on Calculus, Statistics, and Vector Calculus, I was able to " tread the waters ". I have performed many, many Reliability & Support Analysis, and CARMS provides another very usefull tool. Math majors should have no difficulty with the subject matter, however applying this is the high light of the book; 2. I have been very unsucessfull in trying to reach the authors to make recommendations on the next revision. I request assistance, and will leave my employment phone number below. Thanks.
