Even today, as Detroit plans for a new generation of electric cars, a vast new ad campaign by GM finally focuses on fuel economy and other attributes, but ignores reliability, where it is presumed they can't compete.
Moreover, we will show that the standard computation of δ ignores reliability, but, when reliability is accounted for, δ becomes impossible to interpret.
The optimal solutions of example 7 for two states of ignoring reliability and considering reliability have been given to evaluate the effect of reliability (see Figs. 11, 12).
Two series of paired t test were conducted to analyze significant difference between the obtained solutions of the metaheurstic algorithms for two states of ignoring reliability and considering reliability, respectively.
Table 3 and Table 4 indicate the comparison of the Lingo software's B&B algorithm results with MPSO and GA corresponding to 19 test problems for states of ignoring reliability and considering reliability, respectively.
Figures 10 and 11 represent the time for solving the metaheurstic algorithms and the Lingo software's B&B algorithm for two states of ignoring reliability and considering reliability, respectively.
Also, performance of MPSO and GA in two states of ignoring reliability and considering reliability has been indicated in Figs. 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. From Figs. 6, 7, 8, and 9, it can be gathered that ( Z_{text{ave}} ) and ( Z_{text{best}} ) solutions for small- and medium-sized problems are so close to ( F_{text{best}} ) and even coincided.
Earlier, researchers were using the optimization criteria as minimizing system maintenance cost rate, ignoring the reliability performance.
If the shear modulus change after saturation is ignored, the reliability of analyses of amplitude-versus-offset (AVO) and time-lapse seismology would be affected.
For instance, it is not productive to 'incentivize' the distributor to minimize phone waiting times while ignoring the reliability of the electricity supply received when consumers are not particularly worried about phone response times but desperately need improvements in reliability.
The inexact nature of hybridization analysis further compounds the difficulty in interpreting signal from divergent genes by M-CGH, and thus focusing on conserved and divergent genes ignores the increased reliability of gene absence calls.
