Abstract :
In this paper, we will explore the synergies between the technique Prognostics and the techniques HALT and HASS. We will explore: 1) Using HALT to accelerate a prognostics experiment. 2) Using HALT to help choose the appropriate stress levels for a Prognostic type of ALT. 3) Using prognostics during Manufacturing Screening help prove a HASS profile does not wear out products. 4) Using prognostics as an effective method of ESS.
