Abstract

Dependability analysis of a large network is NP-hard due to the state space explosion. A hierarchical Boolean algebraic method was recently introduced to efficiently evaluate static terminal reliability and task-based reliability by dividing the problem into smaller, more manageable pieces. We extend this method to evaluate time-dependent reliability and availability, collectively referred to as `dependability', and to approximate MTTF.
