임베디드 시스템의 일종인 항공전자 장비는 높은 안전성과 신뢰도를 요구한다. 항공전자 장비 고장은 항공기 운용에 중대한 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 최악의 경우에는 조종사와 승객의 인명 손실을 초래할 수도 있다. 본 논문에서는 항공전자 장비의 신뢰도를 높이기 위해 장비에 발생 가능한 고장을 사전에 감지할 수 있는 Built-In-Test(이하: BIT) 설계 기법과 장비의 Mean Time Between Failure(이하: MTBF)를 향상시킬 수 있는 설계 방법을 연구하고 실제 항공전자 장비에 적용하여 신뢰도를 향상시킨 사례를 소개한다.

Background: To review the experience that used both ventricular assist device(VAD) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) for children with congential heart disease requiring postcardiotomy mechanical circulatory support. Material and Method: Between March 1993 and May 1995, we applied mechanical assist device using centrifugal pump to the 16 patients who failed to be weaned from cardiopulmonary bypass(n=15) or had been in cardiogenic shock in intensive care unit(n=1). The diagnosis were all congenital heart diseases and the ages of patients ranged from 20 days to 10 years (mean age=2.5$\pm$3.5 years). Result: The methods of mechanical circulatory support were LVAD(n=13), BVAD (n=1), and ECMO(n=2). The mean assist times were 54.0$\pm$23.7 hours. Post-assist complications were in orders: bleeding, acute renal failure, ventricular failure, respiratory failure, infection, and neurologic complication. It was possible for 9 patients(56.3%) to be weaned from assist device and 5 patients(31.3%) were discharged from hospital. There was no statistical significant between hospital discharged group and undischarged group by age, body weight, cardiopulmonary bypass time, and assist time. Conclusion: The ventricular assist device is an effective modality in salvaging the patient who failed to be weaned from cardiopulmonary bypass, but multiple factors must be considered for improving the results of mechanical circulatory support ; such as patient selection, optimal time of starting the assist device, and prevention and management of the complications.

임무컴퓨터는 항공전자시스템에서 임무 수행에 필요한 각종 전술데이터 처리, 영상처리, 항법정보의 관리 및 융합 등의 매우 중요한 기능을 수행한다. 이러한 중요 시스템이 단일시스템으로 구성되면, 여러 가지 SPOF(Single Point Of Failure) 요소의 고장으로 인해 전체 시스템의 고장으로 이어질 수 있다. 이는 서비스 중단으로 인한 임무의 실패뿐만 아니라 조종사의 생명까지도 위협할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 단일 시스템의 이중화를 통해 SPOF 요소를 제거하고, 이를 운영하기 위한 방안으로 리눅스 기반의 Heartbeat, Fake, DRBD(Distributed Replicated Block Device), Bonding 등의 기법을 이용하여 고가용 시스템을 구현하였다. 또한, 구현한 고가용 시스템에서 빠른 고장 탐지를 위한 FDT(Fault Detection Time)와 고장 발생 시 임무 연속성을 위해 중요한 요소일 MTTR(Mean Time To Repair)의 평균값을 측정하고, 그에 따른 성능분석 결과를 제시한다.

This paper propose a procedure to estimate the system lifetime distribution using simulation method in a parametric framework and also develop the criterion for terminating the simulation. We assume that a system is composed of many components whose lifetime and repair time distributions are general, and repair of each component is imperfect or not. General simulation algorithms can not be adopted for this case, due to the dependency of successive operating times and the discontinuity in base line intensity function of failure process. Then we propose algorithms for generating failure times subject to imperfect repair. We develop the event time tracking logic for identifying the system failure time, and also develop the criterion for terminating the simulation. Our procedure is composed of two phases. The first phase of the procedure is to generate the system failure times from the inputs. The second phase is to estimate the lifetime distribution of the system. The best model is selected by a fully automated procedure among well-known parametric families, and the required parameters are estimated. We give examples to show the accuracy of our procedure and the effect of repair effect of components to system MTTF(Mean Time To Failure).

Software reliability has the greatest impact on computer system reliability and software quality. For this software reliability analysis, In this study, we compare and analyze the trends of the properties affecting the reliability according to the shape parameters of Erlang distribution based on the finite fault NHPP. Software failure time data were used to analyze software failure phenomena, the maximum likelihood estimation method was used for parameter estimation. As a result, it can be seen that the intensity function is effective because it shows a tendency to decrease with time when the shape parameters a = 1 and a = 3. However, the pattern of the mean value function showed an underestimation pattern for the true values when the shape parameters a = 1 and a = 2, but it was found to be more efficient when a = 3 because the error width from the true value was small. Also, in the reliability evaluation of the future mission time, the stable and high trend was shown when the shape parameters a = 1 and a = 3, but on the contrary, when a = 2, the reliability decreased with the failure time. Through this study, the property of finite fault NHPP Erlang model according to the change of shape parameter without existing research case was newly analyzed, and new research information that software developers can use as basic guideline was presented.

대량의 데이터를 저장하는 시스템은 다중디스크 시스템이 필수적이다. 그러나 디스 크의 갯수가 늘어나면 디스크시스템의 신뢰성이 떨어진다. 디스크시스템을 구성하는 디스크 중 하나의 디스크가 고장났을 경우에는 정상 동작하지만, 두 개이상의 디스 크가 고장일 경우에는 저장된 데이타를 잃게되는 디스크시스템을 고려하였다. 또한 각 디스크의 수명은 서로 다른 매개변수를 갖는 지수분포를 따르며, 수리시간은 일반 적인 확률분포를 갖는다고 가정한다. 이 가정을 바탕으로 하여 주어진 디스크시스템의 신뢰성을 MTTF(Mean Time To Failure)로서 분석 하였다. 그리고 디스크시스템의 설계에 필요한 파라미터를 도출하였으며, 특별한 경우 대하여 선형비용 구조하에서 디스크시 스템의 수명을 주어진 값보다 크게 하는 최소 비용 문제를 고찰하였다.

Purpose: Maintaining appropriate operational availability (Ao) is a key element of combat victory, but estimates vary according to estimation methods. The purpose of this study is to improve the accuracy of estimating operational availability by tracing the changes of the weapon system's failure rate, repair rate, and the level of logistic support. Methods: In order to track the change in the operating availability, the MDT (mean down time) is modeled by adding the repair time and the ALDT (administration and logistic delay time) to the service time. Results: Using the field data of the weapon system A operated by the ROKAF, the failure rate follows a non-homogeneous Poisson process that changes with time, and it is modeled considering the changing repair rate and the logistic support time. Conclusion: The accuracy of the analytical results was verified by comparing the actual operating data with the estimated availability. The results of this study can be used to track and evaluate the availability in a realistic situation where the failure rate and maintenance rate continuously change in operating environment.

Present study investigates the fuzzy reliability of some systems using intuitionistic fuzzy Weibull lifetime distribution, in which the lifetime parameters are assumed to be fuzzy parameter due to uncertainty and inaccuracy of data. Expressions for fuzzy reliability, fuzzy mean time to failure, fuzzy hazard function and their ${\alpha}$-cut have been discussed when systems follow intuitionistic fuzzy Weibull lifetime distribution. A numerical example is also taken to illustrate the methodology to calculate the fuzzy reliability characteristics of systems.

This paper describes the development of a reliability-based optimum design technique for such three dimensional tubular frames as off shore structures. The objective function is formulated for the structural weight. Constraints that probability of failure for the critical sections does not exceed the allowable probability of failure are set up. In the evaluation of the probability of failure, fatigue as well as buckling and plasticity failure are taken into account and the mean-value first-order second-moment method(MVFOSM) is applied for its calculation. In order to reduce the computing time required for the repeated structural analysis in the optimization process, reanalysis method is also applied. Application to two and three dimensional simple frame structures is performed. The influence of material properties, external forces, allowable failure probabilities and interaction between external forces on the optimum design is investigated.
