Title: Use of Power Calculations for Gauging Test Adequacy for One-Shot Devices

Abstract:

Predicting the performance of one-shot devices with long periods of dormant storage poses unique challenges to the analyst. In this paper, we describe a model of performance change during storage and the implications of this model for life cycle evaluation. The performance model includes different classes of unknown temporal behaviors that must be considered when designing a monitoring program. We discuss the use of power calculations to design and evaluate different monitoring programs in the face of unknown temporal behavior.
