Abstract

This paper deals with inference for the stress-strength reliability  when X and Y are two independent power distribution. The problem of hypothesis testing and interval estimation of the reliability parameter in a stress-strength model is considered. Test and interval estimation procedures based on the generalized variable approach are given. Statistical properties of the generalized variable approach and an asymptotic method are evaluated by Monte Carlo simulation.
