Summary: This paper presents a joint optimization approach for inspection and condition-based mission abort policy in a partially observable safety-critical system. A hidden continuous-time Markov process is used to model the system deterioration, and the condition monitoring can only provide partial information about the system's hidden state. The joint inspection and mission abort policy is developed by employing a multi-variate Bayesian control approach. The posterior probability of the system being in the warning state is updated at each inspection using Bayes' rule. The mission is aborted and the rescue procedure is initiated when the posterior probability exceeds the control limit. The problem is formulated and solved within the framework of Markov decision process, aiming to minimize the expected total cost including inspection, mission failure, and system failure cost. The paper also presents some structural properties of the control limit and provides numerical examples to demonstrate the proposed model's effectiveness.

Summary: This study investigates the mission abort policies of safety-critical mission-based systems, such as aircraft and submarines, to enhance their survivability. The mission abort decisions are considered in a two-stage degradation process, aiming to minimize the expected total cost of mission failure and system failure. The study also evaluates heuristic policies and formulates a joint optimization problem to determine the optimal mission abort policy and investment for delaying system deterioration.

Summary: This article explores how to design mission abort policies in order to balance the possibility of mission success and system survivability in a mission environment. By considering the degradation degree of monitored health features and system age, operators can abort the mission at early system ages if the degradation reaches a preset control limit. The performance of some heuristic abort policies is analyzed for comparison. The contribution of this article lies in scheduling mission abort plans that utilize both condition monitoring and age information, which enhances the timeliness and robustness of risk control. A case study on inertial navigation systems of UAV executing line inspection missions is used to demonstrate the applicability and superiority of the proposed abort policies.

Summary: This paper discusses the modeling and optimization of mission aborting rules (MARs) for multistate systems with product storage, aiming to maximize the mission success probability (MSP) while meeting a desired level of damage avoidance probability (DAP). A numerical algorithm is proposed to evaluate the MSP and DAP of the system, and a constrained optimization problem is formulated and solved to find the optimal MAR. The study also investigates the influences of storage capacity, storage performance constraints, and desired DAP level on system performance metrics and MAR optimization solutions using a power system example.

Summary: This article proposes a condition-based mission abort policy for safety-critical systems. The policy terminates a mission and initiates a rescue procedure immediately if the system state is worse than a control limit. The article evaluates mission reliability and system survivability to analyze the risk of mission failure and system failure. It also explores the optimal mission abort threshold and the joint optimization of mission abort and protective device selection policies.

Summary: This paper investigates the optimal mission abort policy for systems executing missions in a random environment combining cumulative shock model and run shock model. Two optimization models are constructed to minimize the expected total cost and maximize the mission success probability while providing a desired system survivability. The advantages of the constructed bivariate mission abort policy are justified through two heuristic abort policies that only consider single abort criterion.

Summary: This paper investigates the optimal routing, aborting, and hitting strategies of UAVs executing hitting tasks, taking into consideration factors such as time window, target defense range, and optimal bomb and fuel loads. The study aims to assign targets to each UAV, determine hitting order, and reduce the probability of UAVs being destroyed by allowing UAVs to abort tasks based on hits and shocks suffered. By optimizing fuel and bomb loads and using tabu search algorithm, the study successfully achieves two objectives simultaneously.

Summary: The paper introduces an optimal mission abort policy that minimizes expected costs due to inspections, mission failure, and system loss. The system operates in a random environment modeled by a renewal process of shocks, where the decision to abort or continue operation depends on experienced shocks and the state of the system revealed only at inspections. The cost minimization problem is formulated with detailed numerical illustrations and discussions.
