A crucial note on stress-strength models: Wrong asymptotic variance in some published papers.

The purpose of this note is to point out a problem related to stress-strength models in some published papers. This difficulty has occurred in the asymptotic variance of the maximum likelihood estimator of the stress-strength parameter. The asymptotic variance will be studied in general and then in the mentioned papers. Finally, the correct version of asymptotic variance is computed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
