Primes¶
- Unverified Precondition
- Two further abstractions extend the analysis. Existence assumptions compose along action chains: an action using three referents carries three existence assumptions, and under an independence approximation the action's success probability is the product of the resolvability probabilities, so long chains of unverified preconditions have geometrically decaying success rates.
This sourceEstablishes series-system reliability as the product of component reliabilities — so an action depending on a chain of independently-resolvable referents has a success probability that is the product of their resolvability probabilities, decaying geometrically with chain length.

The right domain — a reliability-engineering textbook — but the abstract we hold never states the series-system product rule, and says nothing of referents, resolvability, or action chains.
“This 5th edition differs from the 4th one for some refinements and extensions mainly on investigation and test of complex repairable systems.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
