Best Linear Unbiased Prediction of Order Statistics in Exponential and Pareto Populations.
Abstract
In many life-testing and reliability situations it is desirable to be able to predict the time of future failures from the times of early failures. Interval prediction for this problem has been treated by several authors. In this report, the author gives best linear unbiased (blu) point predictors of future failures from the early failures when the underlying failure distribution is exponential or Pareto. He also derives the blu estimates of the parameters os the Pareto distribution.
