Abstract
We consider a series system with p components where the failure rate of eac h component depends on the residual number of defects present. Successive t asks are given to the system with each task completion time independent of each component failure time. Based on the outcomes over a fixed testing per iod, the asymptotic properties of the estimators of the component parameter s, task completion parameters, and eventual system reliability are obtained .
