Energy conservation is an important global issue. The home is the third largest energy consumer, and 10% of the home energy use is standby power of home appliances. The proliferation of home networks increases the standby power. The conventional technologies for low networked standby power such as WoL require continuous AC power, as much as 0.5 watts, to monitor wake-up signals. A large portion...

This paper we proposed advanced burst mode control technique to reduce the standby power consumption of the switch mode power supply (SMPS). To reduce the standby power consumption, most of the converter use burst mode or skip mode control technique. However Conventional standby mode control techniques have some problems such as audible noise and poor regulation. In proposed techniques, basical...

In this study, we consider the stress-strength reliability and mean remaining strength of a series system with cold standby redundancy at component levels. Classical Bayesian approaches are studied in order to obtain estimates when underlying stress, components follow exponential distribution different parameters. Bayes approximated by using Lindley’s approximation Markov Chain Monte Carlo meth...

Abstract. A new methodology for the reliability optimization of a k dissimilar-unit nonrepairable cold-standby redundant system is introduced in this paper. Each unit is composed of a number of independent components with generalized Erlang distributions of lifetimes arranged in a series-parallel configuration. We also propose an approximate technique to extend the model to the general types of...

This study is concerned with the performance modeling of a fault tolerant system consisting of operating units supported by a combination of warm and cold spares. The on-line as well as warm standby units are subject to failures and are send for the repair to a repair facility having single repairman which is prone to failure. If the failed unit is not detected, the system enters into an unsafe...

The present investigation deals with a machine repair problem consisting of cold and warm standby machines. The machines are subject to breakdown and are repaired by the permanent repairman operating under N-policy. There is provision of one additional removable repairman who is called upon when the work load of failed machines crosses a certain threshold level and is removed as soon as the wor...

In this paper, we study reliability properties of a k-out-of-n system with single cold standby unit. We mainly focus on the case when operates in discrete time. order to describe its aging behavior consider three different mean residual life functions. By using some statistics present several monotonicity results associated these characteristics. Since calculation described quantities requires ...
