With growing demand for zero defects, predicting reliability of software systems is gaining importance. Software reliability models are used to estimate the reliability or the number of latent defects in a software product. Most reliability models to estimate the reliability of software in the literature are based on the development lifecycle stages. However, in the maintenance phase, the software needs to be corrected for errors and to be enhanced for the requests from users. These decrease the reliability of software. Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGMs) have been applied successfully to model software reliability in development phase. The software reliability in maintenance phase exhibits many types of systematic or irregular behaviors. These may include cyclic behavior as well as long-term evolutionary trends. The cyclic behavior may involve multiple periodicities and may be asymmetric in nature. In this paper, SGRM has been adapted to develop a reliability prediction model for the software in maintenance phase. The model is established using maintenance data from a commercial shop floor control system. The model is accepted to be used for resource planning and assuring the quality of the maintenance work to the user.

This paper discusses some problems of the TMN-based architecture of integrated network management systems and presents a CORBA-based architecture of distributed network management system with reliability, which maintains location transparency of distributed managed objects and provides an interoperability among heterogeneous networks and systems. In this paper, the proposed distributed management system model has been applied to the TMN based management systems and then considered for qualitative evaluation of system performance. Two different types of implementation models have been proposed: one is a system using a CORBA gateway and the other is a pure CORBA system, which maps all managed objects into CORBA objects. The characteristics of two system model have been compared in the respect of system implementation

PSD is automatically opened and closed when subway train arrive on the station. This system was designed to control electric automatic system. These doors will provide passenger safety, energy saving and a good environment in subway. The monitoring and control systems of PSD are configured so that they can be operated in automatic mode in connection with ATO through the composite control panel in the station control room. The objective of this paper is to obtain high reliability that is essential for monitoring and control systems of PSD. The power supply is based on protection circuit using DC power bridge from two UPS. Also, stable communication system consists of CAN communication line redundancy and RF cross protection algorithm. Monitoring state display results show the validity of the proposed high reliability monitoring and control systems of PSD.

It has been tested for SW reliability in order to prevent the SW error during the development of weapons systems. According to a recent report, defects such as memory leak, buffer overflow, and null deference occur usually in the development stage, but also in the mass production stage. Although it is intended to enhance the SW test and evaluation to prevent SW failures in the development stage, the non-functional problems like syntax errors are not completely revised due to the limitation of the schedule and costs. In addition, SW failure rate are usually fluctuated by the operational environment through SW upgrade in contrast with HW. In this paper, we propose a method to increase SW reliability in the mass production stage of Korean weapon systems.

In the conventional fuzzy system reliability analysis, the reliabilities of the fuzzy systems and the components of fuzzy systems are represented by real values between zero and one, fuzzy numbers, vague sets, interval valued fuzzy sets, etc. This paper propose a method to represent and analyze the reliabilities of the fuzzy systems based on the internal valued vague sets defined in the universe of discourse [0, 1]. In the interval valued vague sets, the upper bounds and the lower bounds of the conventional vague sets are represented as the intervals, therefore it can allow the reliabilities of a fuzzy system to represent and analyze in a more flexible manner.

A reliability-based topology optimization (RBTO) for electromagnetic systems using the finite element method is presented. Permeability and applied current density are considered as uncertain variable. In order to compute reliability constraints, performance measure approach is used. To find the reliability index, the limit state function is linearly approximated at each iteration. Numerical examples show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

본 연구는 정시성의 목표값이 운영 요구조건으로 주어지고 이를 달성하지 못한 해당연도에는 철도운영자에게 패널티가 부과되는 상황에서 철도시스템의 신뢰도 목표값을 설정하는 문제를 다룬다. 철도시스템의 신뢰도에 따라 총 운영기간동안 패널티 부과 회수가 달라지기 때문에 철도운영자는 이를 고려하여 철도시스템 및 하위시스템에 대해 신뢰도 목표값을 설정할 필요가 있다. 본 논문은 철도운영자가 운영기간 동안의 패널티 부과회수를 고려하여 철도시스템의 서비스 신뢰도 목표로 설정할 수 있도록 철도시스템 및 하위시스템의 서비스 고장 간 거리에 따라 연간 패널티 부과 확률 및 철도시스템의 운영연수 동안 패널티 부과 회수를 산출하는 절차 및 계산식을 제안한다.

Successful operation of power systems under the deregulated electricity market depends on the management of the transmission system reliability. Quantitative evaluation of the transmission system reliability is an important issue. Particularly, the nodal reliability indices can be of value in the management and control of congestion and reliability of the transmission system under the deregulated electricity market. In this study, a method developed for the reliability evaluation of the transmission system is presented. The Monte Carlo methods are used because of their flexibility when complex operating conditions are being considered. The usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed method are illustrated by a case study with the KEPCO system.
