Class Objectives
/Class Outline
Based on the Basic probability theory, we deal with the uncertain phenomena with time an d focus on discrete-events arising in informatics, data science and engineering fields. More specifically we lean Poisson processes, renewal processes, discrete-time Markov chain, continuous-time Markov chain, as well as the advanced theory of probability. In addition we consider typical applications such as queueing theory in computer and communication theory and reliability and maintenance engineering.
