Chapters are organized around several prototype classes of stochastic processes featuring Markov chains in discrete and continuous time, Poisson processes and renewal theory, the evolution of branching events, and queueing models. Solutions to selected exercises are included. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.

PRAISE FOR THE SECOND EDITION "This book is a valuable resource for anyone studying combustion processes."--David L. Liscinsky, United Technologist Research Center, in AIAA JOURNAL
"This is an excellent text-book....The narrative is clear, careful and detailed but, at the same time, designed to draw (not to bore) the reader in. The main strengths, in my opinion, are the wealth of convincing applications, which are discussed at some, but not too much length after each bit of theoretical development, and the large number of exercises given at the ends of sections, not just at the ends of chapters."--Martin Crowder, University of Surrey, Guildford, in THE STATISTICIAN
