English abstract:
We give combinatorial descriptions of two stochastic growth models for series-parallel networks introduced by Hosam
Mahmoud by encoding the growth process via recursive tree structures. Using decompositions of the tree structures
and applying analytic combinatorics methods allows a study of quantities in the corresponding series-parallel networks.
For both models we obtain limiting distribution results for the degree of the poles and the length of a random
source-to-sink path, and furthermore we get asymptotic results for the expected number of source-to-sink paths.

Keywords:
series-parallel networks, growth models, distributional analysis, source-to-sink ´paths, node degrees
