Strategic defense and attack for series and parallel reliability systems: reply to rejoinder

Author

Listed:
  • Hausken, Kjell

Abstract

Kovenock and Roberson’s (2012ab) replication of Hausken’s (2008a) equations and parameter restrictions do not enhance our insight into the defense and attack of reliability systems. This reply intends to fill the remaining understanding gaps.
