Modelling predictive reliability of Systems embedding EEE parts (Invited): The FIDES method adapted for Space applications

The purpose of the paper is to explain how the European Space Agency (ESA) is providing guidance, to all space stakeholders, through an upcoming handbook and a digital platform to perform reliability predictions at all levels. The Agency has defined a methodology with methods and models for all types of elements implemented in spacecrafts' designs. The focus of the paper is put on EEE modelling and how the use of FIDES allows building predictions from component to system.
