A C++ class for algebraic reliability computations

arXiv:2109.08458

Abstract

We present the design and implementation of a \texttt{C++} class for reliability analysis of multi-state systems using an algebraic approach based on monomial ideals. The class is implemented within the open-source \verb|CoCoALib| library and provides functions to compute system reliability and bounds. The algorithms we present may be applied to general systems with independent components having identical or non-identical probability distributions.
