Extract

Balakrishnan and Zhao does an excellent job in this issue at reviewing the recent advances on stochastic comparison between order statistics from independent and heterogeneous observations with proportional hazard rates, gamma distribution, geometric distribution, and negative binomial distributions, the relation between various stochastic order and majorization order of concerned heterogeneous parameters is highlighted. Some examples are presented to illustrate main results while pointing out the potential direction for further discussion.
