Abstract
This paper is split into three sections. In section 1, Kuo believes that incompatibility exists among components and can justify an interdependence of component unreliability and system size. In section 2, Fu and Lou show how to compute the reliability of C(k,n) through a numerical example and use of a given theorem. In section 3, Hwang further elaborates his concerns
