In many industrial and technological systems, due to factors such as deterioration, corrosion,
attacks, etc., preventive replacement is typically performed according to a predetermined …

Traditional standby system models have mostly assumed that each element can be online
and used once during the mission time. In practice especially when a long mission task is …

This paper models a real-time warm standby system that has to accomplish a specified
amount of task by a hard deadline. The system is subject to corrective replacements (CRs) …

This paper models and optimizes the replacement and maintenance schedule (RMS) for a
heterogeneous two-unit standby system. The system must accomplish a specified amount of …

This paper models a warm standby system where a single element is online performing a
specified mission task (eg, a computing task) and subject to corrective replacement (CR) by …

Reliability modeling and optimization of warm standby systems have attracted considerable
research attentions in the past decade due to their wide use in diverse critical applications …

When a mission arrives at a random time and lasts for a duration, it becomes an interesting
problem to plan replacement policies according to the health condition and repair history of …

Intensive research efforts have been dedicated to reliability analysis and optimization of
standby systems. However, only few of the existing models allow a system element to be …

This paper models a dual-unit standby system with non-identical, reusable units that perform
the mission task alternatively according to a pre-specified replacement and maintenance …

Recent studies have shown that elements reusing through preventive replacements is
beneficial in enhancing the mission success probability (MSP) of standby systems. While …
