Reliability designers often try to achieve highly reliable systems. The issue of
reliability
optimization of complex (non-series, non-parallel) systems is investigated in this paper. Maximization of
system
reliability
is usually subject to link’s criticality and cost constraints. This is referred to as
reliability
optimization problem (ROP). A procedure, that determines the maximal
reliability
of the complex system, is developed and proposed in this paper, with the system links are maximized according to their criticalities. A criticality-based Genetic Algorithm is developed and used to evaluate the optimal
reliability
of complex systems. It is then employed to reach the optimal solution of such systems by minimizing their
total cost
, and increasing their overall
reliability
. Numerical experiments are conducted to show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach when applied to complex systems.
