BS EN 61165:2006

This standard BS EN 61165:2006 Application of Markov techniques is classified in these ICS categories:

• 03.120.01 Quality in general
• 29.020 Electrical engineering in general
• 21.020 Characteristics and design of machines, apparatus, equipment
• 03.120.30 Application of statistical methods

This International Standard provides guidance on the application of Markov techniques to model and analyze a system and estimate reliability, availability, maintainability and safety measures. This standard is applicable to all industries where systems, which exhibit state-dependent behaviour, have to be analyzed. The Markov techniques covered by this standard assume constant time-independent state transition rates. Such techniques are often called homogeneous Markov techniques.
