Abstract
Many modern systems are now being developed by aggregating other subsystems and components that may have different expected, though not exactly determined, characteristics and features. As such, these kinds of systems may exhibit features such as concurrency and probabilistic behavior . In this context, appropriate models are needed in order to effectively capture the system behavior.

Relating to the other probabilistic models supported by PRISM, CTMC can be viewed as DTMC with an infinitesimally small time step whereas MDP is extending DTMC with non-determinism [140].
