    The Behavior of Warm Standby Components With Respect To a Coherent System
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2011) Eryilmaz, Serkan
    This paper is concerned with a coherent system consisting of active components and equipped with warm standby components. In particular, we study the random quantity which denotes the number of surviving warm standby components at the time of system failure. We represent the distribution of the corresponding random variable in terms of system signature and discuss its potential utilization with a certain optimization problem. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

    Component Importance in Coherent Systems With Exchangeable Components
    (Applied Probability Trust, 2015) Eryilmaz,S.
    This paper is concerned with the Birnbaum importance measure of a component in a binary coherent system. A representation for the Birnbaum importance of a component is obtained when the system consists of exchangeable dependent components. The results are closely related to the concept of the signature of a coherent system. Some examples are presented to illustrate the results. © 2015 Applied Probability Trust.
