摘要 |
The present invention relates to a device (106) for determining a reliability measure for a given function established by one or more functional blocks of a system component (105,120,130,140) to be assessed. The device comprises
- input means (200) for receiving information from one or more diagnostic blocks each representing a condition of a functional block of a system component to be assessed, said functional block being involved in establishing a given function,
- a module (201) arranged for classifying said conditions, for deriving diagnostic test interval information and for determining a functional block reliability estimation for each of the functional blocks based on the diagnostic test interval information and/or on the classified conditions,
- calculation means (202) adapted for determining a reliability measure for that given function established by the one or more functional blocks based on the one or more functional block reliability estimations. |
