Also, we will never stop saying that maintenance must integrate into all of the company’s initiatives, to affirm its role, which is to ensure greater availability and sustainability of the means of production. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the reliability and availability of a system without knowing the distribution law of the operating times. Among the methods for evaluating dependability criteria (Fault Trees, Petri Nets, etc.), we are interested in queues that have the advantage of taking into account functional dependencies, thus allowing a quantified optimization of maintenance. Indeed, queues make it possible to model parallel or sequential processes, implementing operations taking place at the same time or one after the other, meeting the needs of modeling production systems. The main result of this paper is the study of the influence of availability on the reliability of a multi-state production system.展开更多

文摘消息队列作为一种常见的数据结构,在应用程序和软件操作系统中得到了广泛应用,而随着处理器的不断迭代,传统的锁同步消息队列逐渐无法发挥多核处理器的性能。因此,研究人员尝试引入布谷鸟过滤器(Cuckoo Filter,CCF)和DQueue技术对消息队列进行优化升级,创建云开发消息队列(Cloud Development Message Queue,CDMQ)。基于上述两种技术同时生成多个队列写入数据,操作者利用CCF对数据进行过滤检验,并读取相关信息。通过对CDMQ的性能测试,研究人员证明该消息队列结构具有伸缩性强和吞吐量高等优势,对提高消息队列性能具有重要意义。
