Many real-world critical systems, such as aircraft and human space flight systems, utilize
mission aborts to enhance the survivability of the system. Specifically, the mission objectives …

Reliability of production systems with storage has recently attracted lots of research
attentions. While the existing works have assumed certain maximum capacity of the storage …

This paper considers the optimal choice of productivity (load) of components in 1-out-of-N
non-repairable cold standby systems. It is assumed that each system component can …

Decisive applications, such as control systems and aerial navigation, require a standby
system to meet stringent safety, availability, and reliability. The paper evaluates the …

For some critical applications, successfully accomplishing the mission or surviving the
system through aborting the mission and performing a rescue procedure in the event of …

The paper considers homogeneous, cold standby systems performing missions of the fixed
duration when a failure of an operating element results in a mission failure. A system is …

This paper considers 1-out-of-N: G warm standby (WS) systems subject to multiple-phased
mission requirements, where performance, failure behavior, operation cost, replacement …

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 …

The paper considers homogeneous, 1-out-of-n warm-standby systems performing missions
of the fixed duration when a failure of an operating element results in a mission failure. A …

It is well recognized that using the hot standby redundancy provides fast restoration in the
case of failures. However the redundant elements are exposed to working stresses before …
