R help - Sep 2011 - Weibull point process

Dear list,

 I'm looking for a function to generate (simulate) a random Weibull 
 point process. Can anyone help?

 Cheers,

I don't know if this settles the matter, but if you are modeling Weibull as
the Log-Intensity I.E. in a non-homegenous poisson process you can:

#Where T is the length of the series desired

Weibull.process<-function(T,shape,scale)
{
logLambda=rweibull(T,shape,scale)
Lambda=exp(logLambda)
Point.Process.Counts=rpois(T,Lambda)
return(Point.Process.Counts)
}

I haven't actually tried this code (may contain clerical errors) but I hope
it gets you on the right track.
     Good luck,
      Ken Hutchison

Do you mean a renewal process with the inter-event times having
a Weibull distribution?  Should be trivial to code up, using rweibull.
