Renewal theory: Renewal processes, Inspection paradox & Key renewal theorem

Renewal theory is the branch of probability theory that generalizes the Poisson process for arbitrary holding times. Instead of exponentially distributed holding times, a renewal process may have any independent and identically distributed (IID) holding times that have finite expectation. A renewal-reward process additionally has a random sequence of…
