By the use of the Poisson transformation or the method of difference, we obtain a differential-difference equation from the Fokker-Planck equation for the Glauber-Lachs and Peřina-McGill formula. It is found that the resulting equation is of the same type as the equation of the QCD branching processes. From solutions in these equations, we can infer possible mechanisms for hadronization: The randomization in stochastic theory seems to be a plausible procedure. Some data (diffractive KNO scaling distribution and that of a single jet in e+ e− annihilations) are analysed in our scheme.
