Abstract

The variance of a time average is important for planning, running and interpreting experiments. This paper derives a simple method to find this variance for the case of a Markov process. This method is then applied to obtain the variance of a time average for the case of a birth-death process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
