Abstract
The situation in which results are available on both components and simple systems consisting of m identical, but independent components in series or in parallel is considered. The cases considered are attribute testing both at single and multiple stress levels and life testing. The method of maximum likelihood is used to obtain estimates; and approximate tests of hypotheses and confidence intervals are obtained using the asymptotic variances of the maximum likelihood estimates.Keywords
