Applying coupon-collecting theory to computer-aided assessments

Computer-based tests with randomly generated questions allow a large number of different tests to be generated. Given a fixed number of alternatives for each question, the number of tests that need to be generated before all possible questions have appeared is surprisingly low.

Cumulative record times in a Poisson process

We obtain a strong law of large numbers and a functional central limit theorem, as $t\to\infty$, for the number of records up to time $t$ and the Lebesgue measure (length) of the subset of the time interval $[0,t]$ during which the Poisson process is in a record lifetime.
