Abstract

Abstract : This paper discusses the reliability of operation of an on-line computer system described by a semi-Markov process model. Analytical solutions are obtained by using computer-aided algebraic manipulation techniques. This paper demonstrates that the difficulties of obtaining analytical solutions to Markov processes by standard techniques can be considerably reduced by the application of algebraic symbol manipulation languages. To the author's knowledge, the results of the reliability analysis are also new.
