Abstract
A method and a system for calculating a productivity of an industrial system consisting of system modules is provided. A Markov model is stored for each system module, the Markov model indicating the probabilities that a system module is in different operating states and indicating transition rates of state changes between the operating states of the respective system module for each operating state of the respective system module with a different productivity. A Cartesian product is calculated from a first Markov model of a first system module and from a second Markov model of a second system module linked to the first system module. The calculated Cartesian product is then reduced to a Markov model of the combined sub-system. The calculation of the Cartesian product and the subsequent reduction are carried out successively until the combined sub-system forms the entire industrial system.
