Abstract
The importance of Markov jump processes for queueing theory is obvious. On the one hand, in stochastic modelling the use of Markov processes makes an analysis of the models much easier. On the other hand, for the number of users in a queueing system a mathematical model must be a jump process. The combination of these, i.e. a jump process with Markov property, will be defined and analyzed as a Markov jump process in the present chapter.
