For each class of stochastic process, the text includes its definition, characterization, applications, transient and limiting behavior, first passage times, and cost\/reward models. Along with reorganizing the material, this edition revises and adds new exercises and examples. New to the second edition: a new chapter on diffusion processes that gives an accessible and non-measure-theoretic treatment with applications to finance; a more streamlined, application-oriented approach to renewal, regenerative, and Markov regenerative processes; and, two appendices that collect relevant results from analysis and differential and difference equations. Rather than offer special tricks that work in specific problems, this book provides thorough coverage of general tools that enable the solution and analysis of stochastic models. After mastering the material in the text, students will be well-equipped to build and analyze useful stochastic models for various situations. A collection of MATLAB[registered]-based programs can be downloaded from the author's website and a solutions manual is available for qualifying instructors.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50383758983441,"sku":"CIN1439808759A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52106486317329,"sku":"CIN1439808759G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B0082M4SO2.jpg?v=1750955028"},{"product_id":"modeling-and-analysis-of-stochastic-systems-book-vidyadhar-g-kulkarni-9780367736798","title":"Modeling and Analysis of Stochastic Systems","description":"Building on the author's more than 35 years of teaching experience, Modeling and Analysis of Stochastic Systems, Third Edition, covers the most important classes of stochastic processes used in the modeling of diverse systems.

Emphasizing the modeling of real-life situations with stochastic elements and analyzing the resulting stochastic model, it presents the major cases of useful stochastic processes-discrete and continuous time Markov chains, renewal processes,  regenerative processes, and Markov regenerative processes.The author provides reader-friendly yet rigorous coverage. He  follows a set pattern of development for each class of stochastic processes and introduces Markov chains before renewal  processes, so that readers can begin modeling systems early. He demonstrates both numerical and analytical solution methods in detail and dedicates a separate chapter to queueing applications.Modeling and Analysis of Stochastic Systems includes numerous worked examples and exercises, conveniently categorized as modeling, computational, or conceptual and making difficult concepts easy to grasp. Taking a practical approach to working with stochastic models, this book helps readers to model and analyze  the increasingly complex and interdependent systems made possible by recent advances.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53024320422161,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53024320815377,"sku":"CIN0412049910G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780412049910.jpg?v=1768413455"},{"product_id":"modeling-and-analysis-of-stochastic-systems-book-vidyadhar-g-kulkarni-9781498756617","title":"Modeling and Analysis of Stochastic Systems","description":"Building on the author’s more than 35 years of teaching experience, Modeling and Analysis of Stochastic Systems, Third Edition, covers the most important classes of stochastic processes used in the modeling of diverse systems.

The third edition has been updated with several new applications, including the Google search algorithm in discrete time Markov chains, several examples from health care and finance in continuous time Markov chains, and square root staffing rule in Queuing models. More than 50 new exercises have been added to enhance its use as a course text or for self-study.
