Discrete time alternating renewal process is a very simple tool that permits solving many real life problems. This paper, after the presentation of this tool, introduces the compound environment in the alternating process giving a systematization to this important tool. The claim costs for a temporary disability insurance contract are presented. The algorithm and an example of application are also provided.

A class of non-negative alternating regenerative processes is considered, where the process stays at zero random time (waiting period), then it jumps to a random positive level and hits zero after some random period (life period), depending on the evolution of the process. It is assumed that the waiting time and the lifetime belong to the domain of attraction of stable laws with parameters in the interval (½,1]. An integral representation for the distribution functions of the regenerative process is obtained, using the spent time distributions of the corresponding alternating renewal process. Given the asymptotic behaviour of the process in the regenerative cycle, different types of limiting distributions are proved, applying some new results for the corresponding renewal process and two limit theorems for the convergence in distribution.

We analyse a non-Markovian generalization of the telegrapher's random process. It consists of a stochastic process describing a motion on the real line characterized by two alternating velocities with opposite directions, where the random times separating consecutive reversals of direction perform an alternating renewal process. In the case of Erlang-distributed interrenewal times, explicit expressions of the transition densities are obtained in terms of a suitable two-index pseudo-Bessel function. Some results on the distribution of the maximum of the process are also disclosed.
