in this paper we introduce a new scheme of censoring and study it under the weibull distribution. this scheme is a mixture of progressive type ii censoring and self relocating design which was first introduced by srivastava [8]. we show the superiority of this censoring scheme (psrd) relative to the classical schemes with respect to “asymptotic variance”. comparisons are also made with respect ...

the fisher information matrix for a mixture of two pareto distributions is derived. numericaltabulations of the matrix are also provided for practical purposes. the work is motivated by a real-lifeexample.
