contents For exponentially distributed lifetimes, we consider the prediction of future order statistics based on having observed the first $m$ order statistics. We focus on the previously less explored aspects of predicting: (i) an arbitrary pair of future order statistics such as the next and last ones, as well as (ii) the next $N$ future order statistics. We provide explicit and exact Bayesian credible regions associated with Gamma priors, and constructed by identifying a region with a given credibility $1-λ$ under the Bayesian predictive density. For (ii), the HPD region is obtained, while a two-step algorithm is given for (i). The predictive distributions are represented as mixtures of bivariate Pareto distributions, as well as multivariate Pareto distributions. For the non-informative prior density choice, we demonstrate that a resulting Bayesian credible region has matching frequentist coverage probability, and that the resulting predictive density possesses the optimality properties of best invariance and minimaxity.
