Efficient reliability computation of consecutive-k-out-of-n: F systems with shared components

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part O: Journal of Risk and Reliability, 2022
Consecutive- k systems have been studied extensively in reliability engineering. Linear and circular consecutive- k-out-of- n: F systems with shared component(s) have been studied recently by Lin et al. and Yin and Cui . They considered two adjacent subsystems overlapping with one (multiple) shared component(s), respectively, and obtained system ...

Computing System Reliability Given Interval-Valued Characteristics of the Components

Reliable Computing, 2005
An uncertain non-repairable system consisting of a finite number of components is considered. The reliability characteristics of the components are represented as a set of lower and upper previsions. To compute the lower and upper previsions, characterizing the system reliability, a suitable optimization problem is posed.

Componentwise decomposition for an efficient reliability computation of systems with repairable components

Twenty-Fifth International Symposium on Fault-Tolerant Computing. Digest of Papers, 1995
Fault trees and Markov chains are commonly used for dependability modeling. Markov chains are powerful in that various kinds of dependencies can be easily modeled that fault tree models have difficulty capturing, but the state space grows exponentially in the number of components.

Building Reliable Secure Computing Systems Out Of Unreliable Insecure Components

1986 IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy, 1986
Parallels are drawn between the problems and techniques associated with achieving high reliability, and those associated with the provision of security, in distributed computing systems. Some limitations of the concept of a Trusted Computing Base are discussed, and an alternative approach to the design of highly secure computing systems is put forward,

A Novel and Reliable Workflow for Mobile Cloud Computing System Components Substitution

2016 IEEE International Conference on Internet of Things (iThings) and IEEE Green Computing and Communications (GreenCom) and IEEE Cyber, Physical and Social Computing (CPSCom) and IEEE Smart Data (SmartData), 2016
Reliability of mobile cloud computing system (MCS) components substitution is an important issue for troubleshooting and system upgrading. In this paper, MCS components substitution is equated to MCS service substitution based on a service-oriented architecture of MCS.

Dynamic Performance Evaluation of Communication/Computer Systems with Highly Reliable Components

Probability in the Engineering and Informational Sciences, 1988
System components of communication/computer networks are quite reliable in that their average uptimes are much larger than the average repair/replacement time of a failed unit. By taking this observation into account, a semiMarkov model is developed with a simple regenerative structure, thereby providing strong analytical and computational tractability.

Reliable Computation in Computing Systems Designed from Unreliable Components*

Bell System Technical Journal, 1968
This is the second of two papers which present information-theory-type results pertaining to the reliability of computing systems designed from unreliable components. Two models for component malfunctions are considered. The first is based on the assumption that malfunctions of a particular component are statistically independent from one use to ...

Reliability of an Air Defense Computing System: Component Development

IEEE Transactions on Electronic Computers, 1956
This paper presents the general aspects of the component development program for the AN/FSQ-7 Air Defense Computer. The requirements of the system for high reliability and long life necessitate proper selection of the type of component, proper specification of the component to the manufacturer, and proper component application by the circuit design ...
