Abstract
Field failures of products are frequently modeled using a constant failure rate assumption along with biased device usage times. This methodology provides convenience but may be inaccurate due to the failure rate assumptions and unavailability of precise device usage data. Techniques described herein provide for computing the precise device usage time along with assuming varying failure rates to better estimate field failures.
