| The ordered random variables play important roles in the theory and practice of statistics. They possess significant statistical properties. Over the last few decades, many articles on various topics of ordered statistical data have appeared. Our handbook comprises twenty one chapters discussing various topics on theory and applications. The editors of this book worked together several articles on order and record statistics, which covered the subjects of distributional properties, characterisations and statistical inferences. It was a special interest to co-ordinate and edit an interesting research problem based on material contributed by several prominent researchers from all over the world. This book presents new developments in the subject of ordered random variables. These aspects involve theory of ordered random variables, reliability theory, stochastic ordering, bounds, characterisations, and estimation and prediction techniques. |
