The Z-transform Applied to a Birth-death Process Having Varying Birth and Death Rates
نویسنده
چکیده
The analysis of a birth-death process using the z-transform was recently reported for processes having fixed transition probabilities between states. The current report extends that analysis to processes having transition probabilities that can differ from state to state. It is then shown that the model can be used to study practical queuing and birth-death systems where the arrival, birth, service and death rates may differ from state to state.

This paper deals with the Markov modeling and reliability analysis of urea synthesis system of a fertilizer plant. This system was modeled using Markov birth–death process with the assumption that the failure and repair rates of each subsystem follow exponential distribution. The first-order Chapman–Kolmogorov differential equations are developed with the use of mnemonic rule and these equation...

Birth and death indicators were examined through retrospective surveys conducted in 1985 and 1987 in the Islamic Republic of lran, reviewing 1984 and 1986 events, to obtain infant mortality rate (IMR) and other necessary indicators for health planning and evaluation. Comparison between 1985 and 1987 surveys revealed: 1. No major change in crude death rate ( 6.3 per 1000 in 1987 survey) had...
