This volume is a revised and enlarged version of Chapters 1 and 2
of a book with the same title, published in Romanian in 1968. The
revision resulted in a new book which has been divided into two
parts because of the large amount of new material. The present part
is intended to introduce mathematicians and biologists with a
strong mathematical and probabilistic background to the study of
stochastic processes. We hope some readers will be able to discover
by themselves the new features of our treatment such as the
inclusion of some unusual topics, the special attention paid to
some usual topics, and the grouping of the material. We draw the
reader's attention to the numbering, because there are structural
differences between the two parts. In Part I there are Chapters,
Sections, Subsections, Paragraphs and Subparagraphs. Thus the
numbering a. b. c. d. e refers to Subparagraph e of Paragraph d of
Subsection c of Section b of Chapter a. Definitions, theorems
lemmas and propositions are numbered a. b. n, n = 1,2, . . . ,
where a indicates the chapter and b the section. In Part II there
are Sections, Subsections, Paragraphs, and SUbparagraphs. Thus the
numbering a. b. c. d refers to Subparagraph d of Paragraph c of
Subsection b of Section a. Theorems and lemmas are numbered a. n, n
= 1, 2, . . . , where a indicates the section.
This volume is a revised and enlarged version of Chapter 3 of. a
book with the same title, published in Romanian in 1968. The
revision resulted in a new book which has been divided into two of
the large amount of new material. The whole book parts because is
intended to introduce mathematicians and biologists with a strong
mathematical background to the study of stochastic processes and
their applications in biological sciences. It is meant to serve
both as a textbook and a survey of recent developments. Biology
studies complex situations and therefore needs skilful methods of
abstraction. Stochastic models, being both vigorous in their
specification and flexible in their manipulation, are the most
suitable tools for studying such situations. This circumstance
deter mined the writing of this volume which represents a
comprehensive cross section of modern biological problems on the
theory of stochastic processes. Because of the way some specific
problems have been treat ed, this volume may also be useful to
research scientists in any other field of science, interested in
the possibilities and results of stochastic modelling. To
understand the material presented, the reader needs to be
acquainted with probability theory, as given in a sound
introductory course, and be capable of abstraction."
Der vorliegende Band enthalt die auf der 28. GMDS-Jahrestagung
gehal tenen Vortrage und ein gesondertes Kapitel mit Vortragen und
Diskussionsbemerkungen des Workshops 'Sprachen und Grammatiken'.
Die Reihenfolge und Einordnung der Arbeiten ist gegenUber der Vor-
tragsfolge leicht verandert worden, um inhaLtlich einen noch
besseren Zusammenhang der Themen herzustellen. Aile
Obersichtsreferate und GrundLagenarbeiten wurden an den Anfang des
Buches gestellt. Das ursprUngliche Vorhaben, den Satz fUr diesen
Band auf einer com- putergesteuerten Lichtsatzanlage zu erstellen,
muBten wir Leider nach zeitraubenden BemUhungen wieder aufgeben, da
es nicht meglich war, die mit HiLle des Textsystems "SCRIPT"
erstellten Texte auf einfache Art und Weise in eine fUr den
Lichtsatz geeignete Form zu transferie- reno Die Zusage der damit
betrauten Firma wurde von dieser wieder zurUckgezogen, da die
Kosten fUr die Erstellung eines Interfacepro- gramms den moglichen
Kostenrahmen bei weitem gesprengt hatten. FUr die Hilfe bei der
Produktion des Bandes dank en wir Frau GabrieLe Acar, die den
greBten TeiL der organisatorischen Arbeiten neben der Erfassung zu
erLedigen hatte, sowie ihrer ebenfalls mit der Erfassung und
Korrektur betrauten Kollegin Erika Kraus. SchlieBlich ist es uns
eine angenehme Pflicht, dem Herausgeber der Reihe und dem
Springer-VerLag fUr die UnterstUtzung bei der HersteL- Lung des
Bandes zu danken.
