All Implemented Interfaces:

Function, ReliabilityFunction
```
public class ExponentialFailureFunction
extends ExponentialReliabilityFunction
```
The ExponentialFailureFunction represents the exponential behavior of cumulative failure probability
F(x) = 1 - e^-(alpha * x)
of a failure caused with a fixed rate/probability of occurrence alpha > 0.
