Abstract—The increment of reliability of automated insulin pump is important for development of effective ways for diabetes treatment. Existing models of automated insulin pump don’t allow to use them in closed-loops regime, as their probability of failure is too high. This paper deals with development of generalized model of automated system failures. For that purpose division of automated system for 4 basic blocks with specific conditions of failures is proposed. The cases of failures are analyzed and generalized. The model for system reliability is proposed.
