Abstract

Reliability design, availability and performance assessment of multi-state multiprocessor system with structural redundancy involves solving number of issues. This paper outlines a cutting-age technology of the analytical modelling of the discrete-continuous stochastic systems for automated development the Markovian chains to assess the availability and Performance of multi-state multiprocessor system, which shows the algorithm for reliability behaviour. For various configurations of the multi-state multiprocessor system, the use of the proposed model and problem-oriented software, ASNA represents the ability to automate constructed the Markovian chains after developed the structural-automated model. This model includes a number of settings: numbers of processor in the main sub-system; numbers of processor in the diverse sub-system; number of processor in hot standby; number of processor in cold standby; failure rate of the processor; mean time of sub-system repair; the structure of the system’s and reliability behaviours. The proposed structural-automated model for the automated development the Markovian chains are subject to structure adaptation of the multi-state multiprocessor system and/or the algorithms of reliability behaviour. This allows us to obtain a new model and the feasibility to automate development of the Markovian chains.
