title = "Reliability and mean life of a warm standby system with three units",
abstract = "Redundancy or standby is a technique that has been widely applied for improving system reliability and availability in system design. In this paper, we consider a warm standby system comprising three units; one unit operates in an active state and two units wait in a standby state at the starting point. If the operating unit fails, then the state of one of the two standby units is sequentially changed to the active state. All units in active or standby states can fail. A general method for modeling the standby system is proposed and the system performance measures (system reliability and mean life) are derived.",
