Abstract
In reliability and life testing when the exponentially distributed components are put in series, it is generally assumed that the lifetimes of the components are independently distributed, which leads to some errors if they are not actually independent. In this paper, we study the relative errors incurred in different reliability measures due to such assumptions when actually they follow some bivariate exponential distributions.
