On considere la loi de probabilite du temps d'attente necessaire pour obtenir une duree de vie superieure a une constante T dans un processus de renouvellement. Cette loi est une composee geometrique de convolutions successives d'une distribution a support limite

On renewal processes relating to counter models: the case of phase-type interarrival times

The Type I and Type II counter models of Pyke (1958) have many applications in applied probability: in reliability, queueing and inventory models, for example. In this paper, we study the case in…

On excess-, current-, and total-life distributions of phase-type renewal processes

Consider a renewal process whose interrenewal-time distribution is phase type with representation (α, T). We show that the (time-dependent) excess-life distribution is phase type with representation…
