What is FaultCAT?

FaultCAT (Fault Tree Creation & Analysis Tool) is an open source fault tree creation application written in Java. A fault tree is a graphic help for analysing a system for faults, and how those faults can affect other components in the system.

It is designed to let users combine several fault tree components into a single fault tree. By attaching probabilities to certain components a user can see how parts of a system can affect other parts. There are also tools for doing further analysis on the created fault trees.

Started in the spring of 2003, the FaultCAT is a project that is still in development.
