A new three-parameter
lifetime model, called the inverted exponentiated Lomax (IEL) distribution is
proposed. The IEL distribution is the inverse form of the exponentiated Lomax
distribution. Some properties of the IEL distribution are established. The maximum
likelihood and the asymptotic confidence interval estimators are obtained in
presence of Type I censored samples. Two real data sets are employed to clarify
the usefulness and flexibility of the IEL model with some known distributions.
