The Beta Model for common cause failure (CCF) is well accepted and has proven appropriate for dual architecture Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS). However, it is not directly applicable to a triplex architecture SIS. It has been suggested that CCF for a triplex architecture is appropriately modeled by αβλ. This paper derives α, the multiplier for βλ, required in the evaluation of CCF in triplex systems...
Grid monitoring, as an important part of any grid systems, is needed to query the state of grid resources and match user requirements with available grid resources. In order to ensure the availability of grid monitoring, the reliability imposed by software or hardware failure happened with unpredictable probability must be assessed. This paper contributes to study the reliability analysis approach...
We present a practical, systematical method for the evaluation of the soft error rate (SER) of microelectronic devices. Existing methodologies, practices and tools are integrated in a common approach while highlighting the need for specific data or tools. The showcased method is particularly adapted for evaluating the SER of very complex microelectronic devices by engineers confronted to increasingly...
