Hierarchical population models with poisson recruitment

Abstract

The analysis of an organization having various grades of employee has been undertaken in many different contexts. In 1961, for example, Young and Almond considered an institution (of undisclosed type) having six grades of staff. Gani, in 1963, considered ‘Australian Universities’ as an organization and students were graded according to their stage of study. The author used techniques similar to those of this paper in 1964 to analyze deterministically the age structure of the Australian Academy of Science. Indeed, the analyses have usually been deterministic.
