โฆ Synopsis
In this paper a stochastic model for a two-compartment system which incorporates Erlang residence time distributions (i.e. the residence times have the gamma distribution where the shape parameters assume integer values only) into each compartment is generalized to include random rate coefficients. Analytical forms of the model are derived for the case where the rate coefficients have gamma densities. A relationship is established between the new models and existing models that are in current practical usage.

infinite variance processes have attracted growing interest in recent years due to its applications in many areas of statistics. For example, ARIMA time series models with infinite variance innovations are widely used in financial modelling. However, little attention has been paid to incorporate inf
