In general, this report discusses the techniques and applications of failure diagnosis and performance monitoring and provides a case study to demonstrate condition monitoring of a mechanical system and associated controls. Relationships with respect to system reliability, availability, safety, and maintenance and the impact of good failure diagnosis performance on several operational characteristics of mechanical systems are presented in this report. Guidelines are provided for the development and design of reliability and maintenance data banks and the use of data collected. Failure analysis is discussed in a descriptive manner and covers not only diagnostics but also performance monitoring and statistical analysis of failure information. The objective of the report is to provide an overview and understanding of the activities and practices of the subject matter and familiarize the reader with this rather broad topic. / Master of Science

M.Ing. / Failure is a part of every day life. Information systems project failures are reported regularly in the media. The growth of the information technology industry in its entirety has been very dramatic over the last decade. Large information systems projects have always posed as a challenge for development teams and organizations. The nature of these challenges have increased with the growth of information systems projects over the last decade. With the critical role that information systems have in organizations, it is critical that information systems are delivered on time within budget and according to the requirements. Unfortunately many of the information systems projects that have been started, are cancelled, not on time or over budget. It is the purpose of this dissertation to discuss some of the managerial causes of why information systems projects fail, and also to address issues that could prevent the failure of information systems projects.
