A Matrix-Analytic Approach to Markov-Modulated Brownian Motion
Ramaswami has shown in 2013 that standard Brownian motion is the limit of a family of two-phase fluid queues with increasing rates of transition from one phase to the other.This has motivated us to investigate Markov-modulated Brownian motions(MMBMs)from a matrixanalytic point of view,starting from a Markov-regenerative approach and using fast-switching fluid queues as a tool to determine the required characteristics.Fluid queues,are a particular family of MMBMs characterised by the fact that the evolution is piece-wise linear without Brownian noise.A key consequence is that stochastic fluid queues are amenable to Kolmogorov-type analysis.We present here a summary of the idea behind the technique and of the results obtained so far.
