Abstract

This paper derives an expression for the time to manufacture a large number of identical units under the conditions of finite server reliability and time to return to normal operations. The key parameters of the problem, server mean time between failure and mean time to restore operations are introduced and their impacts identified. The manufacture of x-ray optics is used as an illustrative example and a number of strategies to mitigate the impact finite server reliability are examined. The paper concludes with a set of next steps to improve the fidelity of this modeling and analytic effort.
