## Abstract (arXiv)

We introduce a generalized promotion time cure model motivated by a new biological consideration. The new approach is flexible to model heterogeneous survival data, in particular for addressing intra-sample heterogeneity. We also indicate that the new approach is suited to model a series or parallel system consisting of multiple subsystems in reliability analysis.
