Abstract

Optimum lifetime of a series (resp. parallel) system with general standby component(s) always depends on allocation strategy of standby component(s) into the system. Here, we discuss three different models of one or more standby compo- nents. In each model, we compare different series (resp. parallel) systems (which are formed through different allocation strategies of standby component(s)) with respect to the usual stochastic and the stochastic precedence orders.
