Markov chain
     
         (Named after {Andrei Markov}) A model of
        sequences of events where the probability of an event
        occurring depends upon the fact that a preceding event
        occurred.
     
        A {Markov process} is governed by a Markov chain.
     
        In {simulation}, the principle of the Markov chain is applied
        to the selection of samples from a probability density
        function to be applied to the model.  {Simscript} II.5 uses
        this approach for some modelling functions.
