Reliability Assessment and Optimization of Complex Systems delves into a range of tools and techniques for designing optimized complex systems. Each chapter exp

Many real systems are composed of multi-state components with different performance levels and several failure modes. These affect the whole system's performanc

This book contains 112 papers selected from about 250 submissions to the 6th World Congress on Global Optimization (WCGO 2019) which takes place on July 8–10,

This book is the first to be devoted to multi-state system (MSS) reliability analysis and optimization. It contains a brief historical overview, presents the ba

Availability of a system is a crucial factor for planning and optimization. The concept is more challenging for modern systems such as robots and autonomous sys
