The compound Poisson "local" formulation of the Stein-Chen method is applied to problems in reliability theory. Bounds for the accuracy of the approximation of the reliability by an appropriate compound Poisson distribution are derived under fairly general conditions, and are applied to consecutive-
We present multivariate generalizations of some classical results on the accuracy of Poisson approximation for the distribution of a sum of 0 -1 random variables. A multivariate generalization of Bradley's theorem (Michigan Math. J. 30 (1983) 69) is established as well.
