Abstract
We start from an earlier paper evaluating the overall sojourn time to derive the local sojourn time in stationary regime, in a single server tandem
queue of (m+1) stages with renewal input. The successive service times
of a customer may or may not be mutually dependent, and are governed
by a general distribution which may be different at each sage.
