Abstract
This article provides us with some simple criteria to compare Birnbaum reliability importance measure of components in a general binary coherent system. Such criteria are particularly useful in the absence of information concerning component reliabilities. We also find several simple (necessary and sufficient) conditions concerning system structure, under which such comparison is possible. Examples are given to illustrate our results.
