Handbook of performability engineering

Handbook of performability engineering / Krishna B. Misra, editor.

Performability engineering provides us with the framework to consider both dependability and sustainability for the optimal design of products, systems or services. Whereas dependability is an aggregate of one or more of the attributes of survivability (such as quality, reliability, and maintainabil...
