Abstract:

This paper discusses some models of stochastic geometry which are of potential interest for operations research. These are the Boolean model, a certain model for random compact sets and marked point processes. The Boolean model is a generalization of the well-known queueing system M/G/•. The random compact set model may be useful for modelling spatial spreading processes such as fires, cancers or holes in the Earth’s surface. Marked point processes are used here as models of forests and used for a statistical study of the spatial distribution of damaged trees.
