On the Joint Reliability Importance for k-out-of-n Systems
author
Abstract:
In this paper, the concept of joint reliability importance (JRI) of two or groups of components in a coherent system with independent components have been studied. The JRI is defined as the rate at which the system reliability improves as the reliabilities of the two or groups of components improve. Generally, the sign and the value of the JRI represent the type and the degree of interactions between components with respect to systems reliability.

Joint Reliability Importance of k-out-of-n Systems and Series-Parallel Systems
Joint Reliability Importance (JRI) is a measurement of the degree of interactions between two components in a system. The value of JRI is non-positive (non-negative) if and only if one component becomes more important when the other has failed (is functioning). In this paper, we study the properties of JRI of the k-out-of-n system, where the system works if there are at least k functioning comp...

Extended Abstract. The simplest and the most common way of comparing two random variables is through their means and variances. It may happen that in some cases the median of X is larger than that of Y, while the mean of X is smaller than the mean of Y. However, this confusion will not arise if the random variables are stochastically ordered. Similarly, the same may happen if one would like to ...
full textRedundancy allocation problem for k-out-of-n systems with a choice of redundancy strategies
To increase the reliability of a specific system, using redundant components is a common method which is called redundancy allocation problem (RAP). Some of the RAP studies have focused on k-out-of-n systems. However, all of these studies assumed predetermined active or standby strategies for each subsystem. In this paper, for the first time, we propose a k-out-of-<em...

full textAn Efficient Algorithm for Computing the Reliability of Consecutive-k-Out-Of-n: F Systems
Many algorithms for computing the reliability of linear or circular consecutive-k-out-of-n:F systems appeared in this Transactions. The best complexity estimate obtained for solving this problem is O(k log(n/k)) operations in the case of i.i.d. components. Using fast algorithms for computing a selected term of a linear recurrence with constant coefficients, we provide an algorithm having arithm...
