abstract

  • A new partial ordering among life distributions in terms of their memories of aging is introduced. The relationship between this ordering and various existing orderings of life distributions are discussed. For example, it is shown that there is no relationship between memory ordering and failure rate ordering. Statistical procedure is developed to verify whether one survival function F has less (more) memory than the other survival function G. © 1992, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved.
