Improved Software System for Calculating the Reliability Indicators of Complex Technical Systems
The article analyses the literature sources, which investigate the existing methods and means of calculating reliability indicators of complex technical (in particular, software) systems. The reliability model of a modern complex technical system is often depicted in the form of a reliability block diagram (RBD), which may contain thousands of elements, each transitioning between different states (e.g., operational, failed, restored). This leads to a vast space of possible states in the corresponding Markov model.
