We establish a number of stochastic comparison properties for XY under various assumptions of X and Y. Under the assumption that Y has decreasing reverse hazard rate (DAHR), we show that if X is in any one of the classes IFR, DFR, DMRL or IMRL then XY is in the same class as X. We also obtain some useful bounds for the distribution and the moment of XY. Because the idle time in classical GI/G/1 queuing system can be regarded as the residual life at random time, the results obtained in this paper have applications in the study of such system.展开更多
