LO A machine has two buttons. In order for the machine to function, both buttons must work. One button has a probability of working of .95, and the second button has a probability of working of .88. Example – Rule 1 Button 2 .88 Button 1 .95 LO Though individual system components may have high reliabilities, the system’s reliability may be considerably lower because all components that are in series must function One way to enhance reliability is to utilize redundancy Redundancy The use of backup components to increase reliability Reliability – When Activated (contd.) LO Rule 2 If two events are independent and success is defined as the probability that at least one of the events will occur, the probability of success is equal
