In this paper, two independent coherent systems with different structures, and different types of components are considered. The remaining lifetime and the remaining number of working components of system I after the failure of the system II when we know that the system II fails before the...

In this paper, we investigate the effect of a single cold standby component on the performance of a coherent system. In particular, we focus on coherent systems which may fail at the time of the first component failure in the system. We obtain signature based expressions for the survival...
