Description
Dbench stands for "Dependability Benchmarking" and is an IST 5th FP project aimed at developing concepts, guidelines and prototypes for dependability benchmarking.
DBench will provide to system developers and end-users means for

• assessing the dependability of a system,
• identifying malfunctioning or weak components of a system which require special attention,
• tuning a particular component to enhance its dependability, and iv) comparing the dependability of alternative or competing solutions.

Critical is responsible among other things for the dissemination and technology exploitation plan.
