| Summary: | This paper introduces a two-parameter family of distributions
which includes the ordinary exponential distribution as a
special case. This distribution exhibits monotone hazard rate and
may be a competitor to the families of two parameter gamma and
Weibull distributions. Various statistical and reliability aspects
of this model is explored. Several numerical examples based on
real data show the flexibility of the new distribution for modeling
proposes. |
