Quantitative measurement of software reliability remains an elusive goal. Simultaneously, there is an ever increasing critical dependency on software-based systems in the human infrastructure. There is a great deal of research in addition to well-intentioned methods and practices focused on improving the reliability of software-based systems. To date, most of which still only yields qualitative...

Parrondo’s paradox arises in sequences of games in which a winning expectation may be obtained by playing the games in a random order, even though each game in the sequence may be lost when played individually. We present a suitable version of Parrondo’s paradox in reliability theory involving two systems in series, the units of the first system being less reliable than those of the second. If ...

Cell adhesion in the presence of hydrodynamic forces is a critical factor in inflammation, cancer metastasis, and blood clotting. A number of assays have recently been developed to apply forces to small numbers of the receptor–ligand bonds responsible for adhesion. Examples include assays using hydrodynamic shear in flow chambers or elastic probe deflection assays such as the atomic force micro...
