Rate processes are simple and analytically tractable models for many dynamical systems which switch stochastically between a discrete set of quasi stationary states but they may also approximate continuous processes by coarse grained, symbolic dynamics. In contrast to limit cycle oscillators which are weakly perturbed by noise, the stochasticity in such systems may be strong and more complicated system topologies than the circle can be considered. Here we employ second order, time dependent perturbation theory to derive expressions for the mean frequency and phase diffusion constant of discrete state oscillators coupled or driven through weakly time dependent transition rates. We also describe a method of global control to optimize the response of the mean frequency in complex transition networks.
