Numerical Solution of Markov Chains (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Stewart, William J.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Papers presented at a workshop held January 1990 (location unspecified) cover just about all aspects of solving Markov models numerically. There are papers on matrix generation techniques and generalized stochastic Petri nets; the computation of stationary distributions, including aggregation/disaggregation.
