SAPHIRE
{{primary sources, date=March 2015 SAPHIRE is a probabilistic risk and reliability assessment software tool. SAPHIRE stands for ''Systems Analysis Programs for Hands-on Integrated Reliability Evaluations''. The system was developed for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) by the Idaho National Laboratory. Development began in the mid-1980s when the NRC began exploring two notions: 1) that Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA) information could be displayed and manipulated using the emerging microcomputer technology of the day and 2) the rapid advancement of PRA technology required a relatively inexpensive and readily available platform for teaching PRA concepts to students. The history of SAPHIRE 1987 Version 1 of the code called IRRAS (now known as SAPHIRE) introduced an innovative way to draw, edit, and analyze graphical fault trees. 1989 Version 2 is released incorporating the ability to draw, edit, and analyze graphical event trees. 1990 Analysis improvements to ...
