摘要：In General fuzzy sets are used to analyze the system Reliability. Present paper attempts to review the fuzzy/possibility tools when dealing with reliability of series-parallel network systems. Various issues of reasoning-based approaches in this framework are reviewed, discussed and compared with the standard approaches of reliability. To analyze the fuzzy system reliability, the reliability of each component of the system is considered as a trapezoidal intuitionstic fuzzy number. Trapezoidal intuitionstic fuzzy number arithmetic operations are also performed to evaluate the fuzzy reliability of the system. A numerical example is also given to illustrate the method.
