  • Abstract
    We consider systems comprised of multiple triple modular redundancy (TMR) units in series. Only recently have researchers found that even such simple systems can be configured into various structures. We develop an algorithm for finding a structure that maximizes reliability. Using this algorithm we show that new structures have optimal reliability within some ranges of voter and module reliability.
