## Abstract Consider a directed, sourceβsink network whose arcs either function or fail with known probabilities. This paper presents a decomposition algorithm for the exact computation of the reliability of such a network; that is, the probability that there exists a path from the network's source

## Abstract We consider the problem of calculating the best possible bounds on the reliability of a system given limited information about the joint density function of its components. We show that a polynomial algorithm for this problem exists iff such an algorithm exists for a certain related pro
## Abstract A new probabilistic analytical approach to evaluate seismic system reliability of large lifeline systems is presented in this paper. The algorithm takes the shortest path from the source to the terminal of a node weight or edge weight network as decomposition policy, using the Boolean l
