The success of a security attack crucially depends on time: the more time available to the attacker, the higher the probability of a successful attack. Formalisms such as Reliability block diagrams, Reliability graphs and Attack Countermeasure trees provide quantitative information about attack scenarios, but they are provably insufficient to model dependent actions which involve costs, skills,...

In process of software architecture design, different decisions with system-wide impacts are made. An important decision of design stage is the selection of appropriate software architecture style. Since quantitative impacts of styles on quality attributes have not been studied yet, their application is not systematic. Since Reliability is one of the essential quality requirements of software s...

Logistics service supply chains (LSSCs) are composed of several nodes, with distinct behaviors, that ensure moving a product or service from a producer to consumer. Given the usage of LSSC in many safety-critical applications, such as hospitals, it is very important to ensure their reliable operation. For this purpose, many LSSC structures are modelled using Reliability Block Diagrams (RBDs) an...

The reliability block diagram (RBD) is a graphical tool used for modeling and analysis in various industries, including shipbuilding, aviation, aerospace. Typically, RBDs are transformed into Bayesian networks quantitative of systems. probabilistic models that can capture the uncertainties causal relationships complex They provide metrics such as failure probability, mean time to failure, avail...

System reliability greatly improved because Push-in terminal block adopted for the power input and Cooling method Diagram of the Input/output circuit block. FET devices, refer to the graph of the backup time to obtain an estimation of the initial value of the stop using it, disconnect the input power supply. Nevertheless, uninterruptible power supply requires a large amount of batteries, discha...

binary decision diagram (bdd) is a data structure proved to be compact in representation and efficient in manipulation of boolean formulas. using binary decision diagram in network reliability analysis has already been investigated by some researchers. in this paper we show how an exact algorithm for network reliability can be improved and implemented efficiently by using cudd - colorado univer...
