Abstract
The probability theory of storage systems formulated by P. A. P. Moran in 1954 has now developed into an active branch of applied probability. An excellent account of the theory, describing results obtained up to 1958 is contained in Moran's (1959) monograph, Considerable progress has since been made in several directions-the study ofthe time-dependent behaviour ofstochastic processes underlying Moran's original model, modifications of this model, as well as the formulation and solution of new models. The aim of this paper is to give an expository account of these developments; a comprehensive treatment will be found in the author's forthcoming book [Prabhu (1964)].
