Simulation of all-terminal reliability of an undirected network using the reliability polynomial and plotting reliability polynomial
A simulator was developed and its results compared with the values of the reliability polynomial. The lack of exact methods for calculating reliability polynomials is considered and an approximate method for calculating reliability polynomials covering the shortcomings of exact methods is implemented. A comparative performance analysis of the network reliability simulation, an approximate and exact method for determining the reliability polynomial, was performed. There is an option for plotting reliability polynomial with the chosen accuracy as well.
