Abstract

A computable estimate of the readiness coefficient for a standard binary-state system is established in the case where both working and repair time distributions possess heavy tails.

Both authors are supported by the RFBR, project No 14-01-00319 A. For the first author the article was prepared within the framework of a subsidy granted to the HSE by the Government of the Russian Federation for the implementation of the Global Competitiveness Program.
