Abstract:

This paper considers the case of confidence intervals when reliability data come from independent tests of subsystems and is available in the discrete form. An overview of different methods for the construction of confidence intervals for the reliability of systems using discrete data is presented. In all these methods it is assumed that the elements of a system are independent. However, this assumption is frequently either not valid in practice or, to be more precise, not verified. The article considers this problem only for the case of simple heuristic interval estimates introduced earlier by Hryniewicz.
