Abstract

This paper presents an approach to the reliability and availability of Vessel Traffic Management and Information Systems through the analysis of hardware, software and human reliability. The paper analyzes the critical subsystems and modules on the basis of the reliability theory, in order to achieve and ensure the availability of systems, i.e. to increase the safety of maritime traffic and the protection of the sea and marine environment. The paper discusses some of the techniques and mechanisms of hardware and software redundancy, as well as the activities that result in increasing the reliability of man.
