This paper considers a bivariate random walk modelon a rectangular lattice for a particle injected into a fluid flowing in a tank. The numbers of jumps of the particle in thexandydirections in this particular model are correlated. It is shown that when the random walk forms a bivariate Markov chain in continuous time, it is possible to obtain the state probabilitiespxy(t) through their Laplace transforms. Two exit rules are considered and results for both of them derived.

In this paper we consider the scaled limit of a continuous-time random walk (CTRW) based on a Markov chain {Xn,n≥ 0} and two observables, τ(∙) andV(∙), corresponding to the renewal times and jump sizes. Assuming that these observables belong to the domains of attraction of some stable laws, we give sufficient conditions on the chain that guarantee the existence of the scaled limits for CTRWs. An application of the results to a process that arises in quantum transport theory is provided. The results obtained in this paper generalize earlier results contained in Becker-Kern, Meerschaert and Scheffler (2004) and Meerschaert and Scheffler (2008), and the recent results of Henry and Straka (2011) and Jurlewicz, Kern, Meerschaert and Scheffler (2010), where {Xn,n≥ 0} is a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables.

A multiserver queueing system, the dynamics of which depends on the state of some external continuous-time Markov chain (random environment, RE), is considered. Change of the state of the RE may cause variation of the parameters of the arrival process, the service process, the number of available servers, and the available buffer capacity, as well as the behavior of customers. Evolution of the system states is described by the multidimensional continuous-time Markov chain. The generator of this Markov chain is derived. The ergodicity condition is presented. Expressions for the key performance measures are given. Numerical results illustrating the behavior of the system and showing possibility of formulation and solution of optimization problems are provided. The importance of the account of correlation in the arrival processes is numerically illustrated.
