Computational Probability Applications edited by Andrew G. Glen, Lawrence M. Leemis.

This focuses on the developing field of building probability models with the power of symbolic algebra systems. The book combines the uses of symbolic algebra with probabilistic/stochastic application and highlights the applications in a variety of contexts. The research explored in each chapter is...
