Abstract

In this paper, we derive a recurrence relation for the single moments of order statistics (o.s.) arising from nn independent nonidentically distributed phase-type (PH) random variables (r.v.’s). This recurrence relation will enable one to compute all single moments of all o.s. in a simple recursive manner.
