Abstract

This paper discusses a new approach for accurately evaluating the reliability of a complex, highly reliable system for which neither analysis nor brute-force simulation are feasible. We propose to calculate the reliability at feasible parameter values, and then use Rational Interpolation to evaluate the desired reliability. We present a detailed case-study to demonstrate the usefulness of this method.
