The Panel on Statistical Methods for Testing and Evaluating Defense
Systems had a broad mandate-to examine the use of statistics in
conjunction with defense testing. This involved examining methods
for software testing, reliability test planning and estimation,
validation of modeling and simulation, and use of modem techniques
for experimental design. Given the breadth of these areas,
including the great variety of applications and special issues that
arise, making a contribution in each of these areas required that
the Panel's work and recommendations be at a relatively general
level. However, a variety of more specific research issues were
either brought to the Panel's attention by members of the test and
acquisition community, e.g., what was referred to as Dubin's
challenge (addressed in the Panel's interim report), or were
identified by members of the panel. In many of these cases the
panel thought that a more in-depth analysis or a more detailed
application of suggestions or recommendations made by the Panel
would either be useful as input to its deliberations or could be
used to help communicate more individual views of members of the
Panel to the defense test community. This resulted in several
research efforts. Given various criteria, especially immediate
relevance to the test and acquisition community, the Panel has
decided to make available three technical or background papers,
each authored by a Panel member jointly with a colleague. These
papers are individual contributions and are not a consensus product
of the Panel; however, the Panel has drawn from these papers in
preparation of its final report: Statistics, Testing, and Defense
Acquisition. The Panel has found each of these papers to be
extremely useful and they are strongly recommended to readers of
the Panel's final report. Table of Contents Front Matter Strategic
