description | This paper explores the cumulative entropy of the lifetime of an <i>n</i>-component coherent system, given the precondition that all system components have experienced failure at time <i>t</i>. This investigation utilizes the system signature to compute the cumulative entropy of the system’s lifetime, shedding light on a crucial facet of a system’s predictability. In the course of this research, we unearth a series of noteworthy discoveries. These include formulating expressions, defining bounds, and identifying orderings related to this measure. Further, we propose a technique to identify a preferred system on the basis of cumulative Kullback–Leibler discriminating information, which exhibits a strong relation with the parallel system. These findings contribute significantly to our understanding of the predictability of a coherent system’s lifetime, underscoring the importance of this field of study. The outcomes offer potential benefits for a wide range of applications where system predictability is paramount, and where the comparative evaluation of different systems on the basis of discriminating information is needed. |
