Abstract
This chapter discusses the use of the BDD-based FCASE code to assess the reliability of a hypothetical quadruple-redundant digital fly-by-wire (DFBW) system having an architecture typical of a military transport-class vehicle. The system, which is subject to imperfect fault coverage, has a probability of failure design requirement of less than or equal to 5 × 10−7 for a mission length of 10 hours. This example demonstrates the application of the previously discussed techniques in the assessment of a system of “real-world” size and complexity.
