Assessment of Software Reliability Models
IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering, 1985This paper proposes a method for assessing software reliability models and its application to the Musa and Littlewood-Verrall models. It is divided into two parts.

Reliability of assessment of critical thinking
Journal of Professional Nursing, 2004Although clinical critical thinking skills and behaviors are among the most highly sought characteristics of BSN graduates, they remain among the most difficult to teach and assess. Three reasons for this difficulty have been (1) lack of agreement among nurse educators as to the definition of critical thinking, (2) low correlation between clinical ...

Reliability assessment of p-cycles
GLOBECOM '05. IEEE Global Telecommunications Conference, 2005., 2005In the paper, theoretical formulas describing the reliability function as well as the mean time to failure for static p-cycles are derived. The practical conclusions concerning the design of p-cycles are drawn: p-cycles do not always have good properties from the reliability viewpoint; if an operator decides to use them, it has to ensure that the trade-

Reliability assessment of web applications
Proceedings 26th Annual International Computer Software and Applications, 2003The paper discusses a formal approach for specifying time-dependent web applications, and proposes a Markov model for reliability prediction. Measures for predicting reliability are calculated from the formal architectural specification and system configuration descriptions.

Reliability of the Zurich Neuromotor Assessment
The Clinical Neuropsychologist, 2008Reliability of measurements of timed performance and ratings of associated movements (AMs) for tasks of the Zurich Neuromotor Assessment is investigated and methods to improve it are proposed. Better results were found for timed performance than for AMs.

Reliability assessment of the somatomorphic matrix
International Journal of Eating Disorders, 2004AbstractObjectiveThe appearance of muscularity is an emerging topic of research interest within the body image field. However, the most widely used measure to assess attitudes toward muscularity, the somatomorphic matrix, lacks pertinent reliability data.MethodIn response to this dearth of information, the current study assessed the test‐retest ...

The reliability of palpation in the assessment of tumours
Clinical Otolaryngology, 1990There is now a joint UICC-AJC classification for cervical lymph nodes based mainly on the size of the nodes. There is a recognized error in palpation, not only for detecting the presence of tumour but also its size. This study used an animal tumour model system to compare the ability of 6 independent observers of varying experience to detect and stage ...

The reliability and agreement of subtask assessments
Journal of Dental Education, 1988Knowledge of results (KR) for subtasks is an important type of error information for students, since it is related to a particular sequence of movements. Students' attempts to correct movement errors may be hindered when the KR provided by different instructors is not consistent.

Interrater Reliability of Pupillary Assessments
Neurocritical Care, 2015Subjective scoring of pupil reactivity is a fundamental element of the neurological examination for which the pupillometer provides an objective measure.This single-blinded observational study examined interrater reliability of pupil exam findings between two practitioners and between practitioners and a pupillometer.From 2329 paired assessments, the ...

Reliability and Availability Assessment in Practice
2019 IEEE/ACM 23rd International Symposium on Distributed Simulation and Real Time Applications (DS-RT), 2019High reliability and availability is a requirement for most technical systems. Reliability and availability assurance methods based on probabilistic models is the topic addressed in this talk. Non-statespace solution methods are often used to solve models based on reliability block diagrams, fault trees and reliability graphs.
