... uses CAD/CAM and computer-aided support systems to describe many aspects of a product, including its cost; maintenance planning; reliability prediction and apportionment; mechanical, electric, and electronic failure modes; sneak circuit analysis; maintainability allocation; accessibility and testability evaluation; test point selections; and test sequencing. An LCE description can be built by a well-informed system designer.
