    ABSTRACT:: This report describes a simulation package designed to
               evaluate the reliability of digital systems. The simulator
               can be used to model many different types of systems, at
               varying levels of detail. The user is given much freedom to
               use the elements of the model in the way best suited to
               simulating the operation of a system in the presence of
               faults. The simulation package then generates random faults
               in the model, and uses a Monte Carlo analysis to obtain
               curves of reliability. Three examples are given of
               simulations of digital systems which have redundancy. The
               difference between this type of simulation and other
               simulation techniques is discussed.
