gene-testing program, but various initiatives are getting under way. Several insurance plans have implemented rules for covering certain genetic tests, such as the BRACAnalysis (Myriad Genetics) for breast cancer testing. Some plans have eligibility requirements or prior authorization protocols for the BRACA gene test, one that has the widest set of gene-testing programs in the industry. Anothe...
متن کاملExtreme (X-)Testing With Binary Data and Applications to Reliability Demonstration
Reliability demonstration techniques are used to formally verify that the reliability of a product meets a specified target with a certain degree of confidence. When the reliability target to be demonstrated is very high (close to one), traditional reliability demonstration plans require extremely large sample sizes or have low power. One solution to this problem is to inflate the failure proba...
متن کاملDesign of Accelerated Life Testing Plans for Products Exposed to Random Usage
< p>Accelerated Life Testing (ALT) is very important in evaluating the reliability of highly reliable products. According to ALT procedure, products undergo higher stress levels than normal conditions to reduce the failure times. ALTs have been studied for various conditions and stresses. In addition to common stress such as temperature and humidity, random usage can also be considered as anoth...

متن کاملOptimizing Computation of Recovery Plans for BPEL Applications
Web service applications are distributed processes that are composed of dynamically bounded services. In our previous work [15], we have described a framework for performing runtime monitoring of web service against behavioural correctness properties (described using property patterns and converted into finite state automata). These specify forbidden behavior (safety properties) and desired beh...
