Software Build Phase Duration Standard Deviation calculator computes Duration Variance (Standard Deviation) in s using the defined engineering formula and the input values provided. Duration Variance (Standard Deviation) is expressed in s. No universal acceptance threshold is defined by this calculator.
Worked Example
Verified calculation
Given:
- Build Phase Duration 1 = 10
- Build Phase Duration 2 = 10
- Build Phase Duration 3 = 10
- Build Phase Duration 4 = 10
- Build Phase Duration 5 = 10
Expected Result:
- Duration Variance (Standard Deviation) = 0
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Duration Variance (Standard Deviation) = 0 s.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from automatically validated test cases.
Formula / Method
Standard Deviation = sqrt((pow(build phase duration 1 - ((build phase duration 1 + build phase duration 2 + build phase duration 3 + build phase duration 4 + build phase duration 5) / 5.0), 2) + pow(build phase duration 2 - ((build phase duration 1 + build phase duration 2 + build phase duration 3 + build phase duration 4 + build phase duration 5) / 5.0), 2) + pow(build phase duration 3 - ((build phase duration 1 + build phase duration 2 + build phase duration 3 + build phase duration 4 + build phase duration 5) / 5.0), 2) + pow(build phase duration 4 - ((build phase duration 1 + build phase duration 2 + build phase duration 3 + build phase duration 4 + build phase duration 5) / 5.0), 2) + pow(build phase duration 5 - ((build phase duration 1 + build phase duration 2 + build phase duration 3 + build phase duration 4 + build phase duration 5) / 5.0), 2)) / 5.0)Formula family: formula_software_build_phase_duration_variance_analyzer
