A Variable Sampling Plan Based on C_L for Exponentially Distributed Products

Abstract:

This paper attempts to develop a variable sampling plan based on the lifetime performance index C_L for exponentially distributed products.Practitioners can use the proposed sampling plan to determine the required sample size and the corresponding critical acceptance value,to make reliable decisions in product acceptance.We also tabulate the required sample size and the corresponding critical acceptance value for various producers risk and the consumers risk.
