✦ Synopsis
The shortcomings of the traditional deterministic approach to bacterial lag are exposed in this paper. A more precise, stochastic, formulation is put forward which takes account of the variation of the individual cell's lag time. Formulae are given to describe how the lag-distribution of the cells relates to the deterministic population lag commonly used as a practical measure of bacterial lag time.Copyright 1998 Academic Press Limited

Optimal control of a class of time invariant singleinput, discrete bilinear systems is investigated in this paper. Both deterministic and stochastic problems are considered. In the deterministic problem, for the initial state in a certain set £0, the solution is the same as the solution to the asso
