In this paper, we consider exact joint distributions of numbers of success runs of specified lengths on a Markov directed tree under $$\ell $$ℓ-overlapping enumeration schemes. Methods for deriving the probability generating functions of the joint distribution are presented. We extend the exact distribution theory of runs based on sequences to runs based on directed trees. Some numerical results for the run statistics are given in order to illustrate the computational aspects and the feasibility of our theoretical results. The reliability systems and lifetime distributions are considered. Our general results are applied to reliability systems and lifetime distributions. Finally, we discuss parametric estimation problems based on the lifetimes of the systems.
