To that end, the report contained chapters on the use of testing as a tool of system development; current methods of experimental design; evaluation methods; methods for testing and assessing reliability, availability, and maintainability; software development and testing; and validation of modeling and simulation for use in operational test and evaluation. While the examination of such a wide variety of topics was useful in helping DoD understand the breadth of problems for which statistical methods could be applied and providing direction as to how the methods currently used could be improved, there was, quite naturally, a lack of detail in each area. To address the need for further detail, two DoD agencies-the Office of the Director of Operational Test and Evaluation and the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics-asked the NRC's Committee on National Statistics to initiate a series of workshops on statistical issues relevant to defense acquisition. The aim of each workshop is to inform DoD about the methods that represent the statistical state of the art and, through interactions of the statistical and defense communities, explore their relevance for DoD application. 606 $aReliability (Engineering)$xStatistical methods 606 $aComputer programs$xReliability 607 $aUnited States$xArmed Forces$xWeapons systems$xTesting$xStatistical methods 607 $aUnited States$xArmed Forces$xProcurement 607 $aUnited States$xArmed Forces$xSupplies and stores 615 0$aReliability (Engineering)$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aComputer programs$xReliability. 676 $a355.6/212/0973 701 $aSamaniego$b Francisco$01865233 701 $aCohen$b Michael L$027662 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.) 712 02$aUnited States.$bDepartment of Defense. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910961837003321 996 $aReliability issues for DoD systems$94472277 997 $aUNINA
