摘要
The positive dependence of a subclass of multivariate exponential distributions is examined. This class is characterized by an index vector k and a parameter vector lambda, which are used as an ordering to yield degrees of positive dependence. The results presented have a direct implication on the reliability function of a system and the survival probability function of a shock model, and consequently on the optimal assembly of systems.
