Abstract
A state-of-the-art survey on system effectiveness models is presented. A variety of system effectiveness models dealing with military and space systems have been developed by the US Air Force, Army, and Navy. Each model has different attributes in its definition of system effectiveness. This survey classifies these attributes and definitions and presents their relationship to system effectiveness. Attributes included are reliability, availability, operational readiness, repairability, maintainability, serviceability, design adequacy, capability, dependability, human performance, and environmental effects. The system effectiveness models and their computer codes are also classified and reviewed.
