This paper introduces a definition of reliability based on a process range. Thus, process failure is defined when the … probability distribution of the range is then given and the process reliability over long periods of system operations are then … reliability) are also used to motivate the usefulness of range processes in reliability studies. Finally, we point out that there …

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...

In this work the problem of obtaining an optimal maintenance policy for a single-machine, single-product workstation that deteriorates over time is addressed, using Markov Decision Process (MDP) models. Two models are proposed. The decision criteria for the first model is based on the cost of...

This report introduces a new perspective on the basic concept of dependent failures where the definition of dependency is based on clustering in failure times of similar components. This perspective has two significant implications: first, it relaxes the conventional assumption that dependent...
