I want to thank all people that give me a feedback about the  reliability
library. I thought a good point to start is this forum to get a more precise
answer to my searching. And I got a clear point to start: read more books in
my spare time ;-).
I would like to get ideas on reliability testing/Accelerating Life Testing
for electronic redundant systems. In order to do reliability testing for an
electronic product, what test sequences/topology we should follow ? Are
there any standards (MIL, IEC) to follow or guide me?

Best regards,
Carmen Filimon
