Abstract
The paper investigates stochastic processes directed by a randomized t ime process. A new family of directing processes called Hougaard proce sses is introduced. Monotonicity properties preserved under subordinat ion, and dependence among processes directed by a common randomized ti me are studied. Results for processes subordinated to Poisson and stab le processes are presented. Potential applications to shock models and threshold models are also discussed. Only Markov processes are consid ered.
