  • An Introduction to Random Interlacements

    by Alexander Drewitz, Balázs Ráth, Artëm Sapozhnikov ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book gives a self-contained introduction to the theory of random interlacements. The intended reader of the book is a graduate student with a background in probability theory who wants to learn about the fundamental results and methods of this rapidly emerging field of research. The model was introduced by Sznitman in 2007 in order to describe the local picture left by the trace of a random ... Read more

  • Excel Data Analysis

    Modeling and Simulation

    by Hector Guerrero ...
    Series series Business and Management (R0)
    Why does the World Need—Excel Data Analysis, Modeling, and Simulation? When spreadsheets ?rst became widely available in the early 1980s, it spawned a revolution in teaching. What previously could only be done with arcane software and large scale computing was now available to the common-man, on a desktop. Also, before spreadsheets, most substantial analytical work was done outside the classroom ... Read more

  • Simulation-Based Algorithms for Markov Decision Processes

    by Hyeong Soo Chang, Jiaqiao Hu, Michael C. Fu, Steven I. Marcus ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    Markov decision process (MDP) models are widely used for modeling sequential decision-making problems that arise in engineering, economics, computer science, and the social sciences. Many real-world problems modeled by MDPs have huge state and/or action spaces, giving an opening to the curse of dimensionality and so making practical solution of the resulting models intractable. In other cases, the ... Read more

  • Informal Introduction to Stochastic Processes with Maple

    by Paul Vrbik, Jan Vrbik ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    The book presents an introduction to Stochastic Processes including Markov Chains, Birth and Death processes, Brownian motion and Autoregressive models. The emphasis is on simplifying both the underlying mathematics and the conceptual understanding of random processes. In particular, non-trivial computations are delegated to a computer-algebra system, specifically Maple (although other systems can ... Read more

  • Optimization

    by Kenneth Lange ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Finite-dimensional optimization problems occur throughout the mathematical sciences. The majority of these problems cannot be solved analytically. This introduction to optimization attempts to strike a balance between presentation of mathematical theory and development of numerical algorithms. Building on students’ skills in calculus and linear algebra, the text provides a rigorous exposition ... Read more

  • Optimization of Pharmaceutical R&D Programs and Portfolios

    Design and Investment Strategy

    Edited by Zoran Antonijevic ...
    Series series Business and Management (R0)
    Very little has been published on optimization of pharmaceutical portfolios. Moreover, most of published literature is coming from the commercial side, where probability of technical success (PoS) is treated as fixed, and not as a consequence of development strategy or design. In this book there is a strong focus on impact of study design on PoS and ultimately on the value of portfolio. Design ... Read more

  • Essentials of Stochastic Processes

    by Richard Durrett ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book is for a first course in stochastic processes taken by undergraduates or master’s students who have had a course in probability theory. It covers Markov chains in discrete and continuous time, Poisson processes, renewal processes, martingales, and mathematical finance. One can only learn a subject by seeing it in action, so there are a large number of examples and more than 300 carefully ... Read more

  • Fundamentals of Queuing Systems

    Statistical Methods for Analyzing Queuing Models

    by Nick T. Thomopoulos ...
    Waiting in lines is a staple of everyday human life. Without really noticing, we are doing it when we go to buy a ticket at a movie theater, stop at a bank to make an account withdrawal, or proceed to checkout a purchase from one of our favorite department stores. Oftentimes, waiting lines are due to overcrowded, overfilling, or congestion; any time there is more customer demand for a service than ... Read more

  • Two-Person Zero-Sum Games

    by Alan Washburn ...
    Series series Business and Management (R0)
    Two-person zero-sum game theory deals with situations that are perfectly competitive—there are exactly two decision makers for whom there is no possibility of cooperation or compromise. It is the most fundamental part of game theory, and the part most commonly applied. There are diverse applications to military battles, sports, parlor games, economics and politics. The theory was born in World War ... Read more
