	%X In this paper, the estimation of the stress-strength
parameter R = P(Y < X), when X and Y are independent and both
are Lomax distributions with the common scale parameters but
different shape parameters is studied. The maximum likelihood
estimator of R is derived. Assuming that the common scale parameter
is known, the bayes estimator and exact confidence interval of R are
discussed. Simulation study to investigate performance of the
different proposed methods has been carried out.
