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 …

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

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) …

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 …

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 …

This paper models repairable computing systems performing a mission that is successful if
the system can accomplish a specified amount of work within the allowed mission time or …

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 …

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 …

In this paper, mission reliability, expected mission completion time, and cost of non-
repairable 1-out-of-N: G warm standby sparing systems subject to uneven backup actions …

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 …
