35、s step-by-step directions for its use. There are various models for describing the reliability of repairable items, the power law model being one of the most widely used. This standard provides procedures to estimate the parameters of the power law model and to test the goodness-of-fit of the power
36、law model to data, to provide confidence intervals for the failure intensity and prediction intervals for the length of time to future failures. An input is required consisting of a data set of times at which relevant failures occurred, or were observed, for a repairable item or a set of copies of t
37、he same item, and the time at which observation of the item was terminated, if different from the time of final failure. All output results correspond to the item type under consideration. Some of the procedures can require computer programs, but these are not unduly complex. This standard presents
38、algorithms from which computer programs should be easy to construct.

39、als for the failure intensity, to provide prediction intervals for the times to future failures, and to test the goodness-of-fit of the power law model to data from repairable items. It is assumed that the time to failure data have been collected from an item, or some identical items operating under
40、 the same conditions (e.g. environment and load). 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.
