โฆ Synopsis
This paper deals with stochastic m-compartmental systems with continuous timedependent infusions into all compartments and reversible time-independent flows between any two compartments. A methodology for the first two moments of the distribution of the number of units in the different compartments at any point in time is outlined without resorting to the usual techniques of generating functions and inverse Laplace transforms. A possible application to a systems analysis of the kidney transplant system is discussed.

A multi-compartmental model with particles producing offspring according to the Markov branching process has been studied. Explicit results are given for the two-compartmental system and for irreversible general multicompartmental systems. The known models in stochastic compartmental analysis are sh
The total time spent by both a single particle and by all the particles up to an instant f in a particular compartment in a semi-Markov compartmental system is discussed. Special cases are also considered.
