When determining how reliable something is, a benchmark called "Mean Time Between Failures" is often used. It's usually represented as "MTBF". That means, the average time that a component will operate continuously.

What is the relationship between reliability and failure rate?
MTBF = 1/failure rate R(t) = e (-t/MTBF) http://www.vicorpower.com/documents/quality/Rel_MTBF.pdf
How do you measure the reliability of a computer?
Reliability is not measured. Reliability is an estimation, typically probablistic.
How is software reliability related to hardware reliability and failure intensity?
why readabilities only for hardware not software
Who is a failure?
Everyone defines a failure differently. Who you define as a failure will depend on what you define failure as. What one person sees as a failure, someone else may not see it the same way.
What is a bathtub curve?
A bathtub curve is a curve used in reliability engineering, describing a particular form of the hazard function taking into account three categories of failure rate.

What is the failure rate for a franchise?
What is the failure rate for a franchise? D. 5%
Based on reliability, graphics, and other features how does X-Box compare to Playstation console?
Although both system support high definition output via HDMI and many games are ported to both systems the Xbox 360's failure rate is significantly higher than the Playstation 3 consoles. The Xbox 360 in a recent study had a hardware failure rate of 54.2 % compared to the Playstation 3 consoles 10.6 % failure rate.
What is the failure rate of a franchise in a year?
since a2+ b2= c2, , and , then the failure rate IS in fact 123,456,789,123,345,634,345%
What is the supportability analysis technique used to achieve reliability by assessing the impact that a failure will have on the system?
standardization
