Abstract
Barlow & Scheuer proposed a useful scheme for estimating reliability growth of a system undergoing developmental testing and offered a conservative lower s-confidence bound. This paper shows how a less conservative lower s-confidence bound can be found by using an equivalent model for system reliability.
