Reliability Software

Generic Standard Reliability Prediction Software

The latest release from ITEM Software is an extraordinary collection of new capabilities that provides a customizable, cross-platform, multi-user, open frame-work. Built on proven and recognized analysis engines, ITEM QT (iQT) is a revolutionary approach to reliability, safety, and risk analysis software tools. With iQT, you are no longer limited by the technology choices of software vendors or chained to infrastructure requirements of their products.

The Generic prediction standard editor is provided within the iQT platform. Users can easily customize or create their own prediction standard without any modification in the code. The new standard is automatically recognized in the platform. No coding is needed. User are able to mix the different prediction standards already purchased and customize formulae to suit.

iQT provides a function to allow users to check the implementation of all built-in prediction standards.

The purpose of a reliability prediction model is to estimate the “rate of occurrence of failure” and accelerants of a component’s primary failure mechanisms within an acceptable degree of accuracy. With that in mind, the models should be adequately sensitive to operating scenarios and stresses, so that they allow the user the ability to perform “what if” analysis among these variables.

Open and Extensible

Focused on reliability, safety, and risk assessment, our iQT product is a highly extensible framework that provides common infrastructure for any kind of system modeling.

The capable nature of iQT is achieved by an existing Java platform foundation that is widely supported in your business environment. By following the predefined interface, your team has the ability to create plug-ins that extend the capabilities of iQT . The following are examples of possible iQT extensions:

• New editors or viewers for a given model (file) type
• New quantification model types
• New result types
• New analysis engines

The well-established core services of this platform provide the essential functionality to model and analyze reliability, risk and safety projects. Regardless of the configuration of a particular installation, the core services are available in the framework.

All extensions are highly modular. By allowing capabilities to be added to or removed from the software without affecting other extensions, new functionality, perhaps a new prediction standard, can be added without requiring reconfiguration or redesign of the source code.

iQT is a fully functional open environment, supporting the addition of third-party plug-ins such as:

• Project management plug-ins
• Version management plug-ins
• Third-party computational environment tools (e.g. MATLAB)
• Third-party modeling tools (e.g. data analysis)
• Documentation tools (e.g. PDF viewers)
• Search tools
