Probability and Statistical Models in Operations Research, Computer and Management Sciences: Including Applications to Reliability Models (Springer Series in Reliability Engineering) - Hardcover

Hardcover

ISBN 10: 3031645960 ISBN 13: 9783031645969

Publisher: Springer, 2024

Synopsis

This book explores the convergence of stochastic modeling, reliability tools, and the quest for solutions in an era of globalized challenges. The tools have become only more important in the unforeseen emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine.

 

This comprehensive book is an invaluable resource for graduate students seeking practical knowledge on probability and statistics in real-world applications. The book is divided into four parts: reliability, computer science, management science, and operations research. Each part includes surveys, recent results, and tools used.  Moreover, it offers an essential reference point for researchers, engineers, and managers operating in laboratories, industries, businesses, and government agencies. Through the exchange of academic achievements, ideas, and discussions, this book serves as a catalyst for progress and innovation.
