In many life-critical applications (eg, spacecraft, aircrafts and chemical reactors),
accomplishing a specified mission or aborting mission objectives in the case of certain …

The k-out-of-n: G heterogeneous cold-standby system structure is a widely used fault-
tolerant system design method, where the sequence in which the different system elements …

Life critical applications like space missions and flight controls require their computing
systems to be equipped with some fault-tolerance mechanism to meet stringent reliability …

In this paper we model and analyze non-repairable 1-out-of-N: G warm standby systems
subject to periodic backups and dynamic reworking. Particularly, in such systems, a standby …

This paper models and optimizes a 1-out-of-N: G heterogeneous warm standby system
subject to state-dependent component loading and mission abort policies. For …

This paper models an operation and rescue system where upon the failure of the operation
system (if occurring), the rescue system is immediately activated to prevent the entire system …

This paper considers nonrepairable 1-out-of-N: G cold standby (CS) systems subject to
uneven backup actions as well as dynamic backup and retrieval times. In such systems, only …

Motivated by practical applications (for example production systems, flow transmission
systems, and transportation systems), this paper considers 1-out-of-N: G warm standby …

Considerable research efforts have recently been devoted to the reliability analysis and
optimization of production systems with product storage. The existing models, however …

This paper considers 1-out-of-N: G heterogeneous fault-tolerant systems that are designed
with a mix of hot and cold standby redundancies to achieve the tradeoff between restoration …
