Estimation of the expected PRCOF of a repairable system with bootstrap confidence region

摘要

Bootstrap methods are presented for constructing confidence regions for the expected ROCOF of a repairable system. this is based on the work of Cowling et al. (Journal of the American Statistical Association 1996; 91: 1516-1524) for the intensity function of a NHPP. The method is applied to the failure times of a photocopier given by Baker (Technometrics 1996; 38: 256-265).
