Abstract
This paper is a state-of-art review of the literature related to optimal system reliability with redundancy. The literature is classified as follows. Optimal system reliability models with redundancy Series Parallel Series-parallel Parallel-series Standby Complex (nonseries, nonparallel) Optimization techniques for obtaining optimal system configuration Integer programming Dynamic programming Maximum principle Linear programming Geometric programming Sequential unconstrained minimization technique (SUMT) Modified sequential simplex pattern search Lagrange multipliers and Kuhn-Tucker conditions Generalized Lagrangian function Generalized reduced gradient (GRG) Heuristic approaches Parametric approaches Pseudo-Boolean programming MiscellaneousKeywords
