Stochastic Discrete Event Systems Modeling, Evaluation, Applications

Stochastic Discrete Event Systems Modeling, Evaluation, Applications / by Armin Zimmermann.

The behavior of many technical systems important in everyday life can be described using discrete states and state-changing events. Stochastic discrete-event systems (SDES) capture the randomness in choices and over time due to activity delays and the probabilities of decisions. The starting point f...
