Fundamentals of Stochastic Models offers many practical examples and applications and bridges the gap between elementary stochastics process theory and advanced process theory. It addresses both performance evaluation and optimization of stochastic systems and covers different modern analysis techniques such as matrix analytical methods and diffusion and fluid limit methods. It goes on to explore the linkage between stochastic models, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, and discusses how to make use of intuitive approaches instead of traditional theoretical approaches.
The goal is to minimize the mathematical background of readers that is required to understand the topics covered in this book. Thus, the book is appropriate for professionals and students in industrial engineering, business and economics, computer science, and applied mathematics.
Professor Zhe George Zhang is a professor of Management Science in the Department of Decision Sciences, at the College of Business and Economics, Western Washington University. He has published more than 110 papers in prestigious journals such as Management Science, Operations Research, Manufacturing & Service Operations Management, Production and Operations Management, IIE Transactions, IEEE Transactions, Queueing Systems, Journal of Applied Probability. Co-authored with N. Tian, he published the research monograph entitled Vacation Queueing Models – Theory and Applications in 2006 by Springer, which is the first book on this topic and has been widely cited since its publication. Professor Zhang is one of the Editors-in-Chief for Journal of the Operational Research Society, the first Operational Research journal in the world, and one of the founding Editors-in-Chief for new journal Queueing Models and Service Management and is on the editorial board of several international journals.
