Abstract
In this paper, we study the maintenance method in a system. We also consider a system that begin at time zero with most efficienty. After the first failure it is repaired, but we assume that the lifetime of the system is stochastically less than its lifetime at time zero. It is repaired after the second failure and after the third failur it is checked whether the system should be dismanteld or completly repaired. During the performance of the system preventive maintenance could be used to increase the lifetime of the system. Because these actions are costly, we discuss a method for optimizing the cost of preventive maintenance. Finally, we provide some illustrative examples.

Abstract
When a system is used, it is often of interest to determine with what probability it will work longer than a pre-fixed time. In other words, determining the reliability of this system is of interest. On the other hand, the reliability of each system depends on the structure and reliability of its components. Therefore, in order to improve the reliability of the system, the reliability of its components should be improved. For this purpose, it is necessary to carry out maintenance operations, which will increase costs. Another way to increase the reliability of systems is to change the location of the components. In this paper, the location of system components and optimal maintenance period are determined by minimizing the costs and maximizing the reliability of a series-parallel system. Finally, a numerical example is presented to evaluate the results in the paper.
