Supplier reliability is a key determinant of a manufacturer’s competitiveness. It reflects a supplier’s capability of … suppliers improve delivery reliability. Suppliers, however, often work with multiple manufacturers and the benefit of enhanced … reliability may spill over to competing manufacturers. In this study, we explore how potential spillover influences manufacturers …

transportation. Existing traffic assignment approaches do not properly account for passenger’s expectation for transfer reliability …. In this study, the transfer reliability is explicitly defined and a multi-class user equilibrium model is established …, given which passengers choose the minimal-cost path based on their expected reliability thresholds. In particular, a path …

An n-unit system provisioned with a single warm standby is investigated. The individual units are subject to repairable failures, while the entire system is subject to a nonrepairable failure at some finite but random time in the future. System performance measures for systems observed over a...

Manufacturers supplying products under warranty need a strategy to deal with failures during the warranty period: repair the product or replace it by a new one, depending on e.g. age and/or usage of the failed product. An (implicit) assumption in virtually all models is that new products to...

This paper deals with the prognosis of complex systems using stochastic model-based techniques. Prognosis consists in this case in computing the distribution of the Remaining Useful Life (RUL) of the system conditionally to available information. In so doing, three main challenges arise from the...
