In this paper, we investigate sooner and later waiting time problems for patterns S0 and S1 in multistate Markov dependent trials. The probability functions and the probability generating functions of the sooner and later waiting time random variables are studied. Further, the probability generating functions of the distributions of distances between successive occurrences of S0 and between successive occurrences of S0 and S1 and of the waiting time until the rth occurrence of S0 are also given.

The sooner and later waiting time problems have been extensively studied and applied in various areas of statistics and applied probability. In this paper, we give a comprehensive study of ordered series and later waiting time distributions of a number of simple patterns with respect to nonoverlapping and overlapping counting schemes in a sequence of Markov dependent multistate trials. Exact distributions and probability generating functions are derived by using the finite Markov chain imbedding technique. Examples are given to illustrate our results.

Consider a sequence of outcomes from Markov dependent two-state (success-failure) trials. In this paper, the exact distributions are derived for three longest-run statistics: the longest failure run, longest success run, and the maximum of the two. The method of finite Markov chain imbedding is used to obtain these exact distributions, and their bounds and large deviation approximation are also studied. Numerical comparisons among the exact distributions, bounds, and approximations are provided to illustrate the theoretical results. With some modifications, we show that the results can be easily extended to Markov dependent multistate trials.

We use the Graphical Evaluation and Review Technique (GERT) to obtain probability generating functions of the waiting time distributions of 1st, and th nonoverlapping and overlapping occurrences of the pattern , involving homogenous Markov dependent trials. GERT besides providing visual picture of the system helps to analyze the system in a less inductive manner. Mean and variance of the waiting times of the occurrence of the patterns have also been obtained. Some earlier results existing in literature have been shown to be particular cases of these results.
