Abstract

The work presented in this paper is concerned with the evaluation of induced costs during the operating cycle of a computer system. The economic model is superimposed to the homogeneous Markov model characterizing the evolution of the system. We propose a time-dependent solution to evaluate the operating cost of a computer system. We also define a time-dependent Cost Reduction Parameter as a tool for the benefit analysis of two competing solutions. Warm standby (WSB) and cold standby (CSB) redundancy are considered for illustrative purposes.
