Stochastic processes with imbedded marked point processes (pmp) and thcir application in queneing

Abstract
In generalization of special cases of the literature a class of stochastic processes (PMP) is defined with an imbedded stochastic marked point process of “basic points” which must not be renewal points. A theorem (“intensity conservation principle”) has been proved concerning a relation between stationary distribution of PMP at arbitrary points in time and distributions and intensities connected with the basic points. This relationship simultaneously yields a general method for determination of stationary quantities at arbitrary points in time by means of the corresponding “imbedded” quantities. Some applications to concrete queueing systems have been demonstrated, where arrival or departure epochs of customers are used as basic points. Under weaker independence assumptions as till now done in the literature, new relations are given.
