Subject of this paper is the presentation of a method applicable in practice for determining the rate of withdrawal in a portfolio, depending on the time of premium payment as well as the length of insurance. The method uses the general laws of mortality in order to get an estimation for the rates o

The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) for a distribution function with increasing failure rate is derived, based on a collection of series system data. Applications can arise in industries where operating environments make available only such system-level data, due to system configuration or type-I
System reliability is often estimated by the use of components' reliability test results when system test data are not available, or are very scarce. A method is proposed for computing the exact posterior probability density function, cumulative distribution function, and credible intervals for syst
