Pellaumail, J. Modélisation avec pivot pour une loi générale. (French) Zbl 0581.60074 RAIRO, Rech. Opér. 19, 221-231 (1985). A new modelisation is given for non-exponential service-time with a special role for one fictitious state. It allows to avoid the use of the embedded chain. As an example an efficient algorithm is stated which computes the steady-state probabilities of a non-Markovian queueing network with two stations.
