The reliability is defined as a probability that a system will operate properly for a specified period of time under the design operating conditions without failure and it has been considered as one of the major design parameters in the field of industries. Reliability-Redundancy Optimization Problem(RROP) involves selec tion of components with multiple choices and redundancy levels for maximizing system reliability with constraints such as cost, weight, etc. However, in practice both active and cold standby redundancies may be used within a particular system design. Therefore, a redundancy strategy(active, cold standby) for each subsystem in order to maximize system reliability is considered in this study. Due to the nature of RROP, i.e. NP-hard problem, A Parallel Particle Swarm Optimization(PPSO) algorithm is proposed to solve the mathematical programming model and it gives consistently better quality solutions than existing studies for benchmark problems.

In power systems operation, state estimation takes an important role in security control. For the state estimation problem, conventional optimization algorithm, such as weighted least squares (WLS) method, has been widely used. But these algorithms have disadvantages of converging local optimal solution. In these days, a modern heuristic optimization methods such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), are introducing to overcome the problems of classical optimization. In this paper, we suggested parallel particle swarm optimization (PPSO) to search an optimal solution of state estimation in power systems. To show the usefulness of the proposed method over the conventional PSO, proposed method is applied on the IEEE-57 bus system.

신뢰도란 임의 시스템이 주어진 운용환경 하에서 의도한 기간 동안 의도된 기능을 정상적으로 수행할 확률로 정의된다. 신뢰도-중복 최적화 문제(RROP)는 비용, 무게 등의 제약내에서 시스템의 신뢰도를 최대화할 수 있는 최적의 부품을 선택하고, 부품수와 중복전략(활성/대기중복)을 결정하는 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 아리랑위성 2호의 다채널광학카메라(MSC) 시스템의 설계 구조를 바탕으로 RROP의 수리모형을 제시하고, NP-hard인 RROP의 해법으로써 병렬 개체군집최적화(PPSO) 알고리즘을 제안하였다. RROP 예제의 수치실험 결과는 계획된 수명기간에서 신뢰도를 최대화하는 시스템의 설계 구조를 제시한다.
