Preface
Most books on reliability theory are devoted to traditional binary reliability models allowing for only two possible states for a system and for its components: perfect functionality (up) and complete failure (down). Many real-world systems are composed of multi-state components that have different performance levels and several failure modes with various effects on the entire system performance. Such systems are called multi-state systems (MSSs). Examples of MSS are power systems, communication systems, and computer systems where the system performance is characterized by generating capacity, communication, or data
