The Reliability Analysis System (RAS) is an integrated package of computer programs for the quantification of fault trees. In particular, RAS has the capacity of performing phased mission analysis. RAS is based upon the MOCUS, POCUS, KITT-1, SRTPRN, and COMCAN programs. Mission cut set cancellation and four methods of bounding mission unreliability have been incorporated into RAS. A new cut set algorithm, FATRAM, is also included in RAS. RAS is written for the CDC Cyber-76 computer system and utilizes external storage devices. The program is available from the Argonne Code Center, 9700 South Cass Avenue, Argonne, Illinois 60439.
