In this paper, we deal with the problem of estimating the reliability function of the two-parameter exponential distribution. Classical Maximum likelihood and Bayes estimates for one and two parameters and the reliability function are obtained on the basis of progressively type-II censored samples. The inverted gamma conjugate prior density is assumed for the one-parameter case, whereas the joint prior density of the two-parameter case is composed of the inverted gamma and the uniform densities. A comparison between the obtained estimators is made through a Monte Carlo simulation study. A real example is used to illustrate the proposed methods.

Suppose that the life of unit is distributed as two-parameter exponential distribution. The Bayesian estimation for cold standby series system is studied based on general Progressive type II censored samples. Under the different error loss, the Bayesian estimation of the unknown parameter and reliability function are derived where hyper-parameters are estimated by using Maximum likelihood method. At last, a numerical example is given by means of the Monte-Carlo simulation to illustrate the correctness and feasibility for the method proposed in this paper.
