Abstract

This paper addresses the problems associated with dependability analysis of complex information and control systems (I&CS). FME(C)A-technique is proposed as a unified approach to I&CS dependability assessment. Classic philosophy is extended by introducing new items into assessed objects, relevant causes, assessed effects, assessed attributes and used means. FME(C)A-tables and models for dependability (reliability, survivability and safety) attributes assessment are constructed. Elements of information technology of I&CS analysis are presented.
