"An interesting problem in reliability is to determine the optimal burn-in time.\r\nIn a previous work, the authors studied the solution of such a problem under a particular cost structure.\r\nIt has been shown there that a key role in the problem is played by a function $\\rho$, representing the reward coming from the use of a component in the field. A relevant case in this investigation is the one when $\\rho$ is linear. \r\nIn this paper, we explore further the linear case and use its solutions as a benchmark for determining the locally optimal times when the function $\\rho$ is not linear or\r\nunder a different cost structure.\r\n"^^ . . .
