Abstract
In the literature on the total time on test statistics, it is often assumed that the random variables are mutually independent. It is well known that the scaled total time on test statistics of i.i.d. exponential random variables are the order statistics of independent uniform random variables on (0, 1). We show that this is in fact a characterization property of the l1-isotropic sequence of random variables, which includes the sequence of i.i.d. exponential random variables as a special case.
