ABSTRACT:
An arrangement includes a redundant component system and an endsystem linked with the redundant component system. The redundant component system includes a plurality of components such that the total number of components of this plurality is based on a redundant component quantity. To determine the redundant component quantity, a code-based sequence is provided by the present invention. The code-based system may optionally provide an output that includes designs for redundant component systems, each design having a total number of components equal to the redundant component quantity. To operate the component system, a continuous endsystem functionality program sequence is also provided by the present invention. The continuous endsystem functionality program sequence correlates operational or “duty” cycles for each component comprising the redundant component system with fault tolerant characteristics so that at least one component provides functionality to the endsystem at any given time.
