Abstract
The system reliability of a ''j or more paths required system'' can be obtained from the probability that there is no minimal path suffering a short-mode failure and there is at least one set of j separate path s not suffering an open-mode failure. In order to evaluate the system reliability, we use the method of generating the sum of disjoint produ cts, which is widely used for two-state systems. Some rules and a proc edure for the minimized reliability formula are presented. Copyright ( C) 1966 Elsevier Science Ltd.
