State-space diagram for the flow transmission MSS
Straightforward Reliability Assessmentfor MSS
Stage 1. State-space diagram building or model construction for MSS
Difficult non-formalized process that may cause numerous mistakes even for relatively small MSS
Stage 2. Solving models with hundreds of states
Can challenge the computer resources available
RBD Method: multi-state interpretation
each block of the reliability block diagram represents one multi-state element of the system
each block's j behavior is defined by the corresponding performance stochastic process
logical order of the blocks in the diagram is defined by the system structure function
)(tG j
Combined Universal Generating Function (UGF) and Random Processes
Method
1-st stage: a model of stochastic process should be built for every multi-state element. Based on this model a state probabilities for every MSS's element can be obtained.
2-nd stage: an output performance distribution for the entire MSS at each time instant t should be defined using UGF technique

ENTIRE MULTI-STATE SYSTEM RELIABILITY EVALUATION
based on determined states probabilities for all elements, UGF for each individual element should be defined
by using composition operators over UGF of individual elements and their combinations in the entire MSS structure, one can obtain the resulting UGF for the entire MSS

CONCLUSIONS The presented method extends classical
reliability block diagram method to repairable multi-state system.
The procedure is well formalized and based on natural decomposition of entire multi-state system.
Instead of building the complex model for the entire multi-state system, one should built n separate relatively simple models for system elements.
Instead of solving one high-order system of differential (for Markov process) or integral (for semi-Markov process) equations one has to solve n low-order systems for each system element.
