Failure rates in introductory programming [PDF]
It is a common conception that CS1 is a very difficult course and that failure rates are high. However, until now there has only been anecdotal evidence for this claim. This article reports on a survey among institutions around the world regarding failure rates in introductory programming courses.

Failure rate properties of parallel systems [PDF]
AbstractWe study failure rate monotonicity and generalised convex transform stochastic ordering properties of random variables, with an emphasis on applications. We are especially interested in the effect of a tail-weight iteration procedure to define distributions, which is equivalent to the characterisation of moments of the residual lifetime at a ...

Comparing orthodontic bracket bonding methods based on bracket failure rates
During modern orthodontic treatment brackets are usually placed directly on the tooth enamel. The bond has to withstand a variety of forces (occlusial, masticatory, as well as forces from the wire itself) in the moist oral environment. Additionally, it’s

Comparison of maintenance scheme effects on power transformer reliability performance
Power transformer failures have a significant impact on electrical systems reliability, as they compromise the electricity delivery. Failures impact the operational cost of electric utilities as they endanger the accomplishment of power commitments ...
