Abstract
In certainβlife experiments it may happen that the failure rate may change after some initial period of time. Thie meane that the failure rate during certain interval of time and that of thereafter will differ significantly. Thie suggests a failure model in which one failure rate is assumed to be operative during period of time, say[0, T]. and another failure rate ie operative thereafter, that is after time T. In thie paper, Bayesian point estimates of these fnilure rates are obtained when underlying probability law law is exponential and T is known.

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
Many cohort studies and clinical trials have designs which involve repeated measurements of disease markers. One problem in such longitudinal studies, when the primary interest is to estimate and to compare the evolution of a disease marker, is that planned data are not collected because of missing
