Abstract

This paper considers a certain class of continuous-time Markov processes, whose time-dependent and stationary distributions are studied. In the stationary case, the analogy with Whittle's relaxed Markov process is pointed out. The derivation of the probability generating functions of the general process provides useful results for the analysis of some population and queueing processes.
