Traffic measurements from communication networks have shown that many quantities charecterizing network performance have long-tail probability distributions, i.e., with tails that decay more slowly than exponentially. File lengths, call holding times, scene lengths in MPEG video streams, and intervals between connection requests in Internet traffic all have been found to have long-tail distribu...

In this article we study some properties of a new family of distributions, namely Exponentiated Exponential distribution, discussed in Gupta, Gupta, and Gupta (1998). The Exponentiated Exponential family has two parameters (scale and shape) similar to a Weibull or a gamma family. It is observed that many properties of this new family are quite similar to those of a Weibull or a gamma family, th...

The extreme value theory is widely used in economic and environmental domains, it aims to study the stochastic behaviors associated with rare events. In this context, we consider a new mixture model for extremal events analysis, including Dirichlet process of Weibull (DPMW) distribution below threshold point (PP) upper tail. This developed regression structure PP parameters, which explains vari...

This article considers a new function to propose a new lifetime model. The new model is introduced by utilizing the linear scheme of the two logarithms of cumulative hazard functions. The new model is named as new extended Weibull distribution, and is able to model data with unimodal or modified unimodal shaped failure rates. A brief explanation of the mathematical properties of the proposed mo...

In this paper, we introduce a new multivariate Weibull (MVW) distribution with many interesting properties. We obtain the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) of the parameters and their asymptotic multivariate normal (AMVN) distribution in MVWmodel. We propose large sample studentized tests for testing multivariate exponentiality and also tests for independence and identical marginals of the comp...

In this paper, we introduce a new class of lifetime distributions which is called the additive Weibull geometric (AWG) distribution. This distribution obtained by compounding the additive Weibull and geometric distributions. The new distribution has a number of well-known lifetime special sub-models such as modified Weibull geometric, Weibull geometric, exponential geometric, among several othe...

The Weibull distribution has been widely used in survival and engineering reliability analysis. In life testing experiments is fairly common practice to terminate the experiment before all the items have failed, that means the data are censored. Thus, the main objective of this paper is to estimate the reliability function of the Weibull distribution with uncensored and censored data by using B...

We introduce a new lifetime distribution by considering a serial system with one component following a Weibull distribution and another following a modified Weibull distribution. We study its mathematical properties including moments and order statistics. The estimation of parameters by maximum likelihood is discussed. We demonstrate that the proposed distribution fits two well-known data sets ...
