Abstract--We quantify the closeness of the approximation between two high-level probabilistic models of cascading failure. In one model called CASCADE, failing components successiv...
Redundancy allocation problems (RAPs) have attracted much attention for the past thirty years due to its wide applications in improving the reliability of various engineering syste...
This paper investigates the use of a one-class support vector machine algorithm to detect the onset of system anomalies, and trend output classification probabilities, as a way to ...
Abstract--In the past ten years, the software aging phenomenon has been systematically researched, and recognized by both academic, and industry communities as an important obstacl...

Software testing is an important issue in software engineering. As software systems become increasingly large and complex, the problem of how to optimally allocate the limited test...
This paper reports on a theoretical Bayesian modeling development for residual life prediction in the context of condition-based maintenance. At each monitoring point during a comp...
Abstract--The development of accurate health condition prediction approaches has been a key research topic in condition based maintenance (CBM) in recent years. However, current he...
