Summary:Performability combines performance and reliability analysis in order to estimate the quality of service characteristics of a system in the presence of faults. This chapter provides an introduction to performability, discusses its relation to reliability and performance metrics, and presents common models used in performability analysis, such as Markov reward models or Stochastic Petri Nets.
