  • Abstract
    This paper presents a mathematical model for computing the reliability of a system with redundant components in a tree configuration. This model is quite general and can be applied to any system representable by the appropriate tree. A typical example is cited. A computer program that computes reliability of a system with a tree configuration up to n stages is also presented in the Appendix.
