Construction of Reliability Models for Advanced Digital Systems

This thesis deals with the systems reliability. At First, there is discussed the concept of reliability itself and its indicators, which can specifically express reliability. The second chapter describes the different kinds of reliability models for simple and complex systems. It further describes the basic methods for construction of reliability models. The fourth chapter is devoted to a very important Markov models. Markov models are very powerful and complex model for calculating the reliability of advanced systems. Their suitability is explained here for recovered systems, which may contain absorption states. The next chapter describes the standby redundancy. Discusses the advantages and disadvantages of static, dynamic and hybrid standby. There is described the influence of different load levels on the service life. The sixth chapter is devoted to the implementation, description of the application and description of the input file in XML format. There are discussed the results obtaining in experimental calculations
