Rational arrival process

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, a rational arrival process (RAP) is a mathematical model for the time between job arrivals to a system. It extends the concept of a Markov arrival process, allowing for dependent matrix-exponential distributed inter-arrival times.[1]

The processes were first characterised by Asmussen and Bladt[2] and are referred to as rational arrival processes because the inter-arrival times have a rational Laplace–Stieltjes transform.
