This article considers the reliability analysis of phased-mission systems with common bus performance sharing. The whole system consists of client nodes, service elements, and a common bus redistribution system and it undertakes a multi-phase mission. In each phase, the service elements must satisfy the demands of the prespecified client nodes set. The service elements can share their surplus performance with other client nodes through the common bus. In any phase, the system fails if the demands of the prespecified client nodes set are not satisfied. In other words, the entire system succeeds if the demands of the prespecified client nodes set are satisfied in all phases. The reliability of the proposed model is analyzed by the backward recursive algorithm. The optimal allocation problem is solved by the genetic algorithm. Two examples are presented to demonstrate the proposed reliability evaluation method and optimal allocation algorithm.
