Abstract
First, asymptotic results for inter-record times when the CDF of the underlying IID process is not necessarily continuous are obtained, by a stochastic order argument, from known results for the continuous case. Then the asymptotic behaviour of the bivariate process of upper-record values and inter-record times is studied. Finally, assuming continuity of the underlying CDF, we derive the law of the process of total times spent in sets of states, viewing upper record values as states and inter-record times as times spent in a state, the process so viewed being a discrete time continuous state Markov jump process. The possible relevance of this result to single lane road traffic flow is indicated.
