Review

From the reviews:

"The Workshop Stochastic Models and Optimization ... in May 2001, forms the basis of the present volume. 14 papers from about 60 presentations at the workshop were selected and thoroughly revised making self-contained chapters of a book for a broad audience. It highlighted some recent advances in applied probability achieved mainly by scientists with Chinese background. ... The book seems to be very suitable for seminar studies at the graduate level."
