Summary

Simultaneous prediction intervals for observations inl future samples from a two-parameter exponential distribution are considered. The prediction limits depend upon a previously available complete or type II censored sample from the same distribution. An equation is derived from which the prediction factor is determined and exact prediction limits are illustrated with a numerical example.
