A performability-oriented approach to the design and synthesis of data networks. (English) Zbl 0869.90022
Summary: A performability-oriented QoS approach to the design and synthesis of data networks is proposed. The relationship of the proposed performability variable, its probability distribution function to previously defined performance-reliability metrics is also considered.
