Sommario/riassunto

The book presents a coherent treatment of Markov random walks and Markov additive processes together with their applications. Part I provides the foundations of these stochastic processes underpinned by a solid theoretical framework based on Semiregenerative phenomena. Part II presents some applications to queueing and storage systems.
