Abstract

Many practical systems need to perform multiple missions in sequence, and the system fails as long as it fails in any phase. This kind of system is termed as the phased mission system, and has been studied by many researchers. However, none of them have considered the possibility to store the redundant capacity in one phase so that it can be used in a later phase if the system capacity cannot meet the demand. This paper considers the reliability of a phased-mission system with a storage component. A multi-valued decision diagram based approach is proposed to evaluate the system reliability. An illustrative example is proposed to show the application of the approach.
