Abstract
A deterministic parameter design method is applied to system reliability analysis. The method is used with a simulated annealing algorithm to determine the optimum nominal values of component failure probabilities which correspond to minimum variability in system reliability, when individual component failure probabilities are subject to specified tolerances or variability limits. The optimisation is carried out subject to constraints on component failure probabilities, nominal system reliability and component costs.
