Simulation methods for reliability and availability of complex systems

Simulation Methods for Reliability and Availability of Complex Systems discusses the use of computer simulation-based techniques and algorithms to determine reliability and availability (R and A) levels in complex systems. The book: shares theoretical or applied models and decision support systems that make use of simulation to estimate and to improve system R and A levels, forecasts emerging technologies and trends in the use of computer simulation for R and A and proposes hybrid approaches to the development of efficient methodologies designed to solve R and A-related problems in real-life systems.Dealing with practical issues, Simulation Methods for Reliability and Availability of Complex Systems is designed to support managers and system engineers in the improvement of R and A, as well as providing a thorough exploration of the techniques and algorithms available for researchers, and for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students. INDICE: Part I: Fundamentals: Computer Simulation Algorithms and Techniques for the Systems R&A Problems.Part II: Applications: Best Practices Regarding the Use of Simulation to Solve Systems R&A Real Problems.Part III: Software: State-of-the-art Simulation Software in the Systems R&A Arena.
