We study a K-out-of-M+ W+ C: G mixed standby system with an unreliable repair facility, in
which there are M primary operating components, W warm standby components and C cold …

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 presents a study of interval analysis for solving cold-standby system reliability
optimization problems with considering parameter uncertainty. Most works reported in …

The redundancy allocation problem is the problem of finding an optimal allocation of
redundant components subject to a set of resource constraints. The problem studied in this …

This research paper presents practical stochastic models for designing and analyzing the
time-dependent reliability of nonrepairable systems. The models are formulated for …

The virtualization technology, particularly virtual machines (VMs) used in cloud computing
systems have raised unique security and survivability risks for cloud users. This paper …
