摘要
Age and block replacement policies are commonly used in order to reduce the number of in-service failures. The focus in this paper is on the block replacement policies, about which relatively less is known than age replacement policies. Several new results which connect the properties of block replacement policies with the properties of the corresponding renewal function and the excess lifetimes are obtained. Some applications and the relationships between these new results and some known results are included.
