Developing a model to assist in designing ground vehicular electronic equipment for minimum life cycle cost

Life cycle cost (LCC) was studied as a design evaluation
function for electronic equipment. Sample equipment data
were analyzed to discover cost estimating relationships.
Using these relationships and basic cost parameters, a
LCC model was developed in the BASIC computer language.
The model was exercised to produce output for a variety of
hypothetical electronic assemblies and operating
environments.
<p>The resulting LCC estimates were statistically analyzed,
leading to conclusions about design approaches to
minimizing the LCC of the equipment studied. / Master of Science
