System Signatures and their Applications in Engineering Reliability (Paperback, Softcover reprint of hardcover 1st ed. 2007)

Since the introduction of system signatures in Francisco Samaniego 's 1985 paper, the properties of this technical concept have been examined, tested and proven in a wide variety of systems applications. Based on the practical and research success in building reliability into systems with system signatures, this is the first book treatment of the approach. Its purpose is to provide guidance on how reliability problems might be structured, modeled and solved.
