REDUNDANT METHODS FOR INCREASING THE RESILIENCE OF ACTION CHAIN

Resilience has become an important topic on the safety research agenda and in organizationalpractice. A particularly important issue from the security point of view of any chain of actionis to increase the reliability of the security chain. At this point, it is possible to apply methodscharacteristic of the theory of reliability of technical devices in the phases: composition,implementation and application. The subject of this research is the phase of application (operation)of the chain of action and methods of increasing its resistance to anomalous situations using theprinciple of redundancy. The main research problem is expressed by complementary questionof a praxeological nature: what methods of increasing the resilience of the chain of action in theapplication phase can be distinguished in the application of the principle of redundancy? Theauthor used the strategy of theory prior to research and deductive reasoning based on inference andthe classical principle of analogy, opposites and completeness. The following types of redundancywere distinguished and described by the author: structural, functional, parametric, informational,strength, temporal and elemental.
