Scheduling spares with exponential lifetimes in a two‐component parallel system

Gideon Weiss

Naval Research Logistics Quarterly, 1984, vol. 31, issue 3, 431-446

Abstract: A set of n spare components whose life lengths are exponentially distributed with rates μ1, …,μn are available to keep a two‐component parallel system in operation. We derive the optimal order of replacement of failed components in order to maximize the system life length.
