A more restricted class of processes are the [[continuous stochastic process]]es: here the term often (but not always<ref name=D>Dodge, Y. (2006) ''The Oxford Dictionary of Statistical Terms'', OUP. ISBN 0-19-920613-9 (Entry for "continuous process")</ref>) implies both that the index variable is continuous and that sample paths of the process are continuous. Given the possible confusion, caution is needed.<ref name=D/>

Continuous-time stochastic processes that are constructed from discrete-time processes via a waiting time distribution are called [[continuous-time random walkswalk]]s.
