Abstract
Let {N(t), t ≥ 0} be a nonnegative-integer-valued stochastic process that counts the occurrences of a given event. That is, N(t) is the number of events in the time interval [0, t]. For example, N(t) can be the number of bulb replacements in a lamp that is continuously on, and the dead bulbs are immediately replaced.
