  • Abstract
    The paper "performability analysis: a new algorithmrdquo describes an algorithm for computing the complementary distribution of the accumulated reward over an interval of time in a homogeneous Markov process. In this comment, we show that in two particular cases, one of which is quite frequent, small modifications of the algorithm may reduce significantly its storage complexity.
