Stochastic Dissemination of Faults in an Admissible Network.

摘要

The dynamic distribution of faults in a general type network is discussed. The starting point is a uniquely branched network in which each pair of nodes is connected by a single branch. Mathematical expressions for the uniquely branched network transition matrix are derived to show that sufficient stationarity exists to ensure the validity of the use of the Markov Chain model to analyze networks. In addition the conditions for the use of Semi-Markov models are discussed. General mathematical expressions are derived in an examination of branch redundancy techniques commonly used to increase reliability.
