Abstract
The invention relates to a method for aiding the maintenance of a system, the system comprising a set of networked elements, the system being accompanied by indications defining subsets of networked elements E, each subset of networked elements Ebeing associated with a probability of failure P, the including the steps of calculating a first value Tfor each subset of networked elements E, the first value Tincluding an estimation of the maintenance time related to the repair of the subset of networked elements E, calculating a second value Ffor each subset of networked elements E, the second value Fincluding a representation of a compromise between the estimation of the maintenance time Trelated to the repair of the subset of networked elements Eand the probability of failure Pof the subsets of networked elements E, and sorting the designated sets of items of equipment Ein order of decreasing second value F.
