Generalized stochastic compartmental models with gamma transit times /

This paper considers the use of semi-Markov process models with gamma transit times for the description of compartmental systems. The semi-Markov models seem particularly useful for systems with nonhomogeneous, "poorly-stirred" compartments. The paper reviews the Markov process models with...
