(approximate time to complete: 40 mins)
System Technical Effectiveness and Operational Effectiveness, what they are comprised of and how they are measured.
(approximate time to complete: 40 mins)
System Reliability, what it is, how is it defined, what formulas are used and why and what data is needed to predict it.
(approximate time to complete: 100 mins)
Using the formulas and calculations from System Reliability, how to measure (predict) the reliability of a System as a single entity and in configurations of different component networks.

(average time to complete: 90 mins)
Like Corrective Maintenance, what is it; when is it done and how to measure it.
(average time to complete: 120 mins)
Logistic Delays such as Administrative tasks, availability of spare components and personnel need to be accounted for as they too influence system operational effectiveness.
