Abstract
AbstractThe complexity of the structures of modern engineering systems in the communication and electronic fields, the demand for high reliable system evaluation methods has increased. While improving the system’s reliability, the cost is also on the upswing. Redundancy allocation is important approach for designing telecommunication systems. The reliability is increased by increasing number of redundant components in a system. The Redundancy Allocation Problem (RAP) is the design of new systems with higher reliability using redundant components in parallel arrangement. This paper presents a genetic algorithm (GA) with discrete event simulation (DES) to solve RAP with repairable components. The promising proposed approach is illustrated and investigated by some RAP benchmark/test problems involving repairable systems.KeywordsDiscrete event simulationGenetic algorithmRedundancyRepairable systems
