Abstract
This paper presents a continuous time Markov chain (CTMC) model to obtain closed form expressions of the mean time between system failures (MTBF) for K-out-of-N:G systems subject to M exponential failure modes and repairs. The results are obtained by using explicit matrix representations of the systems.
