Case Study - System Reliability Study for Oracle UK / BSkyB (1998 – 1999)

Oracle’s Interactive Services Project was developing the platform for British Interactive Broadcasting (later BSkyB)’s interactive digital television service. I undertook a review of the design to assess its likely reliability, which included the development of a novel Fault Tree Analysis technique for such systems. In addition, I supported the development of system test plans and technical strategies for aspects such as error handling.
