The field of reliability redundancy allocation optimisation (RRAO) is dedicated to enhancing the overall dependability of complex engineering systems by systematically selecting and allocating ...

Decreased system reliability due to overloaded power supplies is a common engineering challenge. In this Q&A-style article submitted by Allied Electronic & Automation, David Norton, technical ...

Corded equipment often gets left out of high-reliability planning. To build highly available electrical infrastructures, you need redundant components like power distribution units (PDUs), UPSs, and ...

High availability can no longer be an afterthought for designers building a piece of telecom and wireless equipment. Downtime means lost revenue, and that's something few can afford in a tight market.

Steps engineers can take to help mitigate power outage impacts. Paths to PLC redundancy. Paths to PAC redundancy. How can a dual Ethernet ring help with resilience? Power outages are becoming more ...

The power industry is undergoing massive transformational change with the emergence of renewables, battery storage, smart grids, Internet of Things, Industry 4.0, and more. Perhaps the timing is right ...

Wireless solutions are often thought to be tainted by susceptibility to interference and lack of reliability. Despite recent technical improvements, wireless transmission technology still elicits ...

An interesting discussion has emerged about the resistance of various kinds of system-level ICs to single-event upset (SEU) and whether this is an important to system reliability. It has been widely ...

The demand for reliable power systems in critical facilities continues to increase, putting pressure on engineers to design reliable systems within project budgets that are often decreasing. This ...

Business continuity planning assumptions are changing the way companies recover from impact scenarios and minimize the disruption to daily business activities. Nearly all businesses are moving data ...
