Abstract
This paper concentrates on the fundamental concepts of entropy, information and divergence to the case where the distribution function and the respective survival function play the central role in their definition. The main aim is to provide an overview of these three categories of measures of information and their cumulative and survival counterparts. It also aims to introduce and discuss Csiszár's type cumulative and survival divergences and the analogous Fisher's type information on the basis of cumulative and survival functions.
期刊介绍：
The primary focus of the journal is on stochastic modelling in the physical and engineering sciences, with particular emphasis on queueing theory, reliability theory, inventory theory, simulation, mathematical finance and probabilistic networks and graphs. Papers on analytic properties and related disciplines are also considered, as well as more general papers on applied and computational probability, if appropriate. Readers include academics working in statistics, operations research, computer science, engineering, management science and physical sciences as well as industrial practitioners engaged in telecommunications, computer science, financial engineering, operations research and management science.
