MAXIMIZATION OF SYSTEM RELIABILITY WITH LIMITED RESOURCES

Abstract

The optimization of system reliability of a series parallel system containing t types of components is found where the cost of purchasing the components is disregarded, a component can be assigned to more than one component position, and a limited supply of components is available for assignment. The optimal solution is found by ranking the reliabilities of the components of each type and searching over these ranks in the orders specified in this paper.
