Our algorithm is based on the use of appropriately defined stochastic process which represents the total weight of the system at time t. These stochastic processes are explicitly defined and used along with the ordered component lifetimes to simulate MTTF of the systems with weighted components.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMean time to failureOrder statisticsReliabilityWeighted k-out-of-n:G systemsMean Time To Failure of Weighted <i>k</I>-out-of-<i>n< G SystemsArticleQ4441027052713WOS:00035751660001518
