A transient solution method for semi-Markov systems
The author considers a semi-Markov process with finite state space defined by the set of transition rates from a state to another. A Kolmogorov type equation for the probability state vector is obtained. This is useful to evaluate semi-Markov systems. For related papers see \textit{V. Nitu} and the reviewer [Rev. Roum. Sci.
