In particular, general bounds are found for the reliability of such systems. Moreover, it is shown how these continuumsystems can be approached by finite multistate systems.engjournal articlehttps//doi.org/10.1016/0377-2217(90)90188-Hhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/037722179090188Hrestricted access519.216Reliability theoryContinuum systemsProcesos estocásticos1208.08 Procesos Estocásticos
