We review the idea of generating non-extensive stationary distributions based on aaabstract composition rules of the subsystem energies, in particular the parton cascade method, using a Boltzmann equation with relativistic kinematics and modified two-body energy composition rules. The thermodynamical behavior of such model systems is investigated. As an application hadronic spectra with power law tails are analyzed in the framework of a quark coalescence model.
