“…Dembińska et al
17 focused on the reliability characteristics of an
‐out‐of‐
system with a single cold standby component in the case when the lifetime of the system is a discrete random variable. Pakdaman and Ahmadi
18 investigated the reliability properties of the
‐out‐of‐
:G system in the stress‐strength setting with three different types of standby components, that is, cold, warm, and hot standby. Also, they studied the significance of the switching time of the standby component.…”
