    Abstract
  • As a generalization of cold and hot standby technique, warm standby has been widely used in the system design. This paper focuses on the reliability modeling of warm standby systems and extends a multi-valued decision diagram (MDD) based system reliability modeling approach. By concentrating on the failures in the system, the existing method first constructed the failure level MDD and system MDD, and then obtained the analytical expression for the system reliability based on the system MDD. However, the system reliability expression is a mixture of integrals of different dimensions, which requires some manual rearrangement to calculate the system reliability at given time. Based on the existing work, we suggest an MDD splitting procedure after obtaining the system level MDD and a reassignment for the probabilities of the edges in the system MDD. With this extension, the numerical value for the system reliability at any given time can be easily obtained and the MDD based reliability evaluation approach for warm standby systems is completed.
