Hhis book deals with the theory of Markov skeleton processes developed by authors and provides a systemeetic basis for the study of a variety of important stochastic processes including the GI/G/1process in queueing theory and piecewise deterministic Markov processes.Authors also use a lot of spplications of Markov sdeleton processes to queueing theory,inventory theory and risk theory.Most results in this book are published for the first time.
This book is sutiatle for graduate studients who ha
