N2 - We study a problem of scheduling search-and-detection activities in complex technological and organizational systems. Prior probabilities of failures are known for each element, and the decision maker has to sequentially inspect the components so that to find a failed component within a given level of confidence. The inspections are imperfect; namely, a probability of overlooking the failed element and a probability of a "false alarm" exist. An index-based algorithm for finding the optimal search strategy is developed. An example for robotic search systems is discussed.
