Sheldon Ross's classic bestseller, _INTRODUCTION TO PROBABILITY
MODELS_, has been used extensively by professionals and as the primary
text for a first undergraduate course in applied probability. It
introduces elementary probability theory and stochastic processes, and
shows how probability theory can be applied fields such as
engineering, computer science, management science, the physical and
social sciences, and operations research.
The hallmark features of this renowned text remain in this eleventh
edition: superior writing style; excellent exercises and examples
covering the wide breadth of coverage of probability topic; and
real-world applications in engineering, science, business and
economics. The 65% new chapter material includes coverage of finite
capacity queues, insurance risk models, and Markov chains, as well as
updated data.
