The travel form P to Q can be achieved by different lines of buses, passing the bus stop P according to a given Poisson distribution and having different velocities. We analyze the strategy for a passenger arriving at random at P in order to arriving at Q in the minimum of time. We also consider (n.5) a problem of waiting time at P when the buses follow processes which are not of Poisson. © 1985 Springer.
