Burn-In
The process of running a system for an extended period to detect early failures and ensure reliability.
Fault Tolerance
The capability of a system to continue operating properly in the event of the failure of some of its components, ensuring that user experience is not significantly affected by errors or issues, similar to Postel's Law.
Error Handling
The process of anticipating, detecting, and resolving errors in software or systems to ensure smooth operation.
Postel’s Law
A principle stating that a system should be liberal in what it accepts and conservative in what it sends, meaning it should handle user input flexibly while providing clear, consistent output, similar to the principle of fault tolerance.
Selection Bias
A bias that occurs when the sample chosen for a study or survey is not representative of the population being studied, affecting the validity of the results.
Repeated Measures Design
A research design where the same participants are used in all conditions of an experiment, allowing for the comparison of different conditions within the same group.
Incident Management
