Abstract
The present Phd thesis deals with problems related to reliability theory and statistical quality control. Specifically, we study the properties of random variables which are useful for investigating multiple failure mode reliability systems, scan statistics and covering arrays. The new results established in this study, concern the approximation or the exact evaluation of the distribution, of the aforementioned random variables; also, several applications of the theoretical results in various fields are presented. The main tools exploited in this study are fetched from the theory of stochastic ordering, the Poisson approximation theory and the Markov chain embedding method.
