Most dependability approaches are sophisticated mathematical procedures, which do not permit precise modeling and calculation of large and complex systems. Furthermore, input values are mostly uncertain. Dependability methods, procedures, and approaches, which cover a wide area of engineering applications, have been described in [Barlow et al. 1965, Singh et al. 1977, MBB 1977, Endrenyi 1978, Schneeweiss 1980, 1992, 2001, Dhillon et al. 1981, Kochs 1984, Billinton et al. 1992, Misra 1993, Andrews et al. 2002, Kececioglu 2002, O’Connor et al. 2002, Pham 2003, Meyna et al. 2010, Kochs 2012]. They represent the methodology in dependability analyses over several decades and outline the relevant steps for further development of effective methods and approaches.
