Survival Signatures for System Reliability (2021)
Book Chapter
Coolen, F. P., & Coolen‐Maturi, T. (2022). Survival Signatures for System Reliability. In Wiley StatsRef: Statistics Reference Online. Wiley. https://doi.org/10.1002/9781118445112.stat08331

In system reliability, the structure function models functioning of a system for given states of its components. The survival signature provides a useful summary of the structure function to aid quantification of system reliability with components of...

The survival signature for quantifying system reliability: an introductory overview from practical perspective (2021)
Book Chapter
Coolen, F., & Coolen-Maturi, T. (2021). The survival signature for quantifying system reliability: an introductory overview from practical perspective. In C. van Gulijk, & E. Zaitseva (Eds.), Reliability Engineering and Computational Intelligence (23-37). Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-74556-1_2

The structure function describes the functioning of a system dependent on the states of its components, and is central to theory of system reliability. The survival signature is a summary of the structure function which is sufficient to derive the sy...

Modelling Uncertain Aspects of System Dependability with Survival Signatures. (2015)
Book Chapter
Coolen, F., & Coolen-Maturi, T. (2015). Modelling Uncertain Aspects of System Dependability with Survival Signatures. In W. Zamojski, & J. Sugier (Eds.), Dependability Problems of Complex Information Systems (19-34). Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-08964-5_2

The survival signature was recently introduced to simplify quantification of reliability for systems and networks. It is based on the structure function, which expresses whether or not a system functions given the status of its components. In this pa...

Generalizing the signature to systems with multiple types of components (2012)
Book Chapter
Coolen, F., & Coolen-Maturi, T. (2012). Generalizing the signature to systems with multiple types of components. In W. Zamojski, J. Mazurkiewicz, J. Sugier, T. Walkowiak, & J. Kacprzyk (Eds.), Complex systems and dependability (115-130). Springer Verlag. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-30662-4_8

The concept of signature was introduced to simplify quantification of reliability for coherent systems and networks consisting of a single type of components, and for comparison of such systems’ reliabilities. The signature describes the structure of... Read More about Generalizing the signature to systems with multiple types of components.
