A two-factor stochastic production model with two time scales

A two-factor production model where one factor is characterized by a continuous state variable and corresponds to the fast mode via a controlled diffusion process, whereas the second factor is characterized by a discrete variable and corresponds to the slow mode via a controlled jump process.
