Abstract

The Bayesian predictive distribution of the rth order statistics of a "future" sample from a mixed exponential distribution, is given, based on a current type I censored sample from the same distribution and using the prior distribution given in Jones and Ashour (1976). A numerical example and computer facilities will be used to illustrate the procedure.
