Abstract :
Contrary to common belief, one can achieve better reliability by triplicating only part of a computing machine rather than by triplicating the whole machine. The reliability figures for varying degrees of partial redundancy have been obtained. From such figures are derived conditions best suited to the totally redundant, partially redundant or nonredundant system.
