The paper presents newly developed university software FNPO designed for reliability-based optimization. The program works with a newly proposed optimization method called Aimed Multilevel Sampling (AMS) in the optimization cycle of reliability-based optimization. For simulation at different levels of the algorithm AMS and reliability calculations program uses cyclic calls of program FReET – so called double-loop approach. The developed software enables to optimize model of general complexity with consideration of deterministic and/or reliability constraints.
