On the criteria of the mean remaining life

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1988, vol. 6, issue 4, 205-211

Abstract: In most practical situations the conditional mean remaining life of a device depends on its expired lifetime. We introduce new criteria of aging in terms of the conditional remaining life. The implications among these criteria and some other concepts of aging are developed. The k-order classes of the mean remaining life criteria are discussed.
