Abstract
Entropy of engineering systems, as a measure of uncertainty, has been studied in statistical and reliability litera ture. In this paper, we provide an expression for the entropy of a coherent system lifetime by using the concept of minimal signature when lifetimes of components are independent and identically distributed. We also obtain bounds for the entropy of system lifetime in term in terms of the entropy of component lifetimes. It is shown that bounds are very useful when the system has a large number of components or the configuration of the system is complicated. Some examples are also given.
