A Cold-Standby System with Server Failure and Delayed Treatment
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper stochastically investigates a two unit cold-standby system with a server subject to failure and getting delayed treatment thereafter. Semi-Markov process is used to develop the system model. The model is analyzed at different regeneration points using regenerative-point technique. The steady-state expressions are derived for various system performance measures such as mean time to failure, availability, busy period of server, expected number of treatments, profit etc. Finally, numerical examples are given to discuss the effect of various parameters on system performance measures.

Fault tolerant system with imperfect coverage, reboot and server vacation
This study is concerned with the performance modeling of a fault tolerant system consisting of operating units supported by a combination of warm and cold spares. The on-line as well as warm standby units are subject to failures and are send for the repair to a repair facility having single repairman which is prone to failure. If the failed unit is not detected, the system enters into an unsafe...
متن کاملReliability Analysis of Redundant Repairable System with Degraded Failure
This investigation deals with the transient analysis of the machine repair system consisting of M-operating units operating under the care of single repairman. To improve the system reliability/availability, Y warm standby and S cold standby units are provided to replace the failed units. In case when all spares are being used, the failure of units occurs in degraded fashion. In such situation ...
متن کاملCold standby redundancy optimization for nonrepairable series-parallel systems: Erlang time to failure distribution
In modeling a cold standby redundancy allocation problem (RAP) with imperfect switching mechanism, deriving a closed form version of a system reliability is too difficult. A convenient lower bound on system reliability is proposed and this approximation is widely used as a part of objective function for a system reliability maximization problem in the literature. Considering this lower bound do...

This paper deals with multi-component machine repair model having provision of warm standby units and repair facility consisting of two heterogeneous servers (primary and secondary) to provide repair to the failed units. The failure of operating and standby units may occur individually or due to some common cause. The primary server may fail partially following full failure whereas secondary se...
