Mean Time to Achieve a Failure-Free Requirement
IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1985A common reliability test procedure is to test until a given, consecutive, failure-free time has passed. This paper gives expressions for the mean time to test completion, for both elapsed and operating time, for general probability distributions. The situations in which the test is monitored periodically and the repair time is not zero are considered.

THE MYTHICAL MEAN TIME TO FAILURE
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1992Abstract As software engineering has emerged as a discipline in its own right, its practitioners have often borrowed methods and techniques from other engineering fields. These techniques have proved useful in the past, and the expectation has been that they would have a similar utility when applied to software.

Reliability Models to Estimate Mean Time to Failure of Switched Reluctance Machines
2021 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE), 2021In this paper, reliability models for Switched Reluctance Machine (SRM) are presented to estimate Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) when operated during normal and fault conditions. Markov state transition diagrams and reliability models are used to estimate the reliability of the machine following different fault occurrence levels.

Reasoning About Mean Time to Failure in Vehicular Clouds
IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2016In this work, we envision a vehicular cloud involving cars in the parking lot of a major airport. The owners of these cars are typically on travel for several days, providing a pool of cars that can serve as the basis for a data center at the airport.

Defining mean time-to-failure in a particular failure-state for multi-failure-state systems
IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 2001In multi-failure-state systems which have both dangerous (critical) and safe (noncritical) failure states, it is both meaningful and important to be able to measure the MTTF in a particular failure state separately from MTTF in general. MTTF/sub D/ (fail dangerous) and MTTF/sub S/ (fail safe) are defined, emphasizing the engineering context of the ...

Towards Approximating the Mean Time to Failure in Vehicular Clouds
IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2018In a recent paper, Ghazizadeh et al. have studied vehicular clouds running on top of the vehicles in the parking lot of a major airport. The defining difference between vehicular clouds and their conventional counterparts is the unpredictable availability of computational resources.

With the increased use of electronics and networks comes a concern about their failure modes. If they fail, we wish they did so in a benign manner. Hence, a reliability parameter of interest is the expected time to a disastrous failure, where there is a loss of money, information, or time. The models and methods for computing this expectation, however,

On estimating the mean time to failure with unknown censoring
IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1989Sometimes, in reliability studies, neither the life of all failed units nor the number of units still functioning is known at any specific time due to problems such as administrative delays. Consequently, one might consider an estimate of the mean time to failure (MTTF) based only on known failure times of part of the units.
