Abstract

Abstract : The statistical estimation of the reliability of a simple system, subject to exponential failures and subsequent repairs, is considered. Observations are assumed taken at isolated instants (snapshots), and for also continuous periods of time (patches); the information is combined by maximum likelihood. Procedures for improving small-sample properties of estimates are studied by Monte Carlo sampling experiments. The robustness of the estimates is similarly considered. (Author)
