Synopsis
Probabilistic modeling is the most cost-effective means of performance evaluation of computer systems. This book is a major revision of Modelling of Computer Communication Systems (CUP, 1987), one of the standard introductions to the area. Changes to the content reflect the change in the subject itself. Professor Mitrani has amplified the treatment of queues, reliability and applied probability. This book will be welcomed by students and teachers for its no-nonsense treatment of the basic results and examples of their application. The text includes the necessary fundamentals in probability and stochastic processes, making the book ideal for students in computer science or operations research taking courses in modern system design.

Review
"Mitrani succeeds in making his subject easily accessible...This approach makes the material clear and understandable for a wide audience. In addition, complex theoretical and practical problems seem relatively easy...a concise, clear, and well-documented book." Mathematics of Computing
"...a very useful text for the practitioner and a nice addition as a quick reference to the probabilist's library. I highly recommend it to both groups...The strong emphasis on the explanation of ideas and the intuition behind concepts sets this text apart from others on the subject." Journal of the American Statistical Association

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
