Abstract :
The integration of reliability and performance has received increasing attention. Performability, a new kind of network reliability measure is gradually employed in analysis. However, most results are based on the assumption that failures of different components are independent. Some solutions of the problem have been obtained, though they are preliminary. Some open issues are mentioned
