✦ Synopsis

Buchhandelstext
Any engineer who is responsible for the design and development of discrete systems, such as embedded software for control or telecommunication systems, knows that the most important quality of the final product is that it be functionally correct. Once assured that the system behaves correctly, it is also important that it be efficient in that its running cost is minimal or is optimum in whatever quanititive measure is chosen. Stochastic Petri nets have been developes over the last decade with exactly these objectives in mind.This book is an introduction to Stochastic Petri nets and arose out of a desire by the authors to collect all one needs to understand Stochastic Petri net theory in one volume. The intention of this book is not to give an overview of several or all Stochastic Petri net models appearing in the literature, but to stress a combined view of functional and performance analysis in the context of some Stochastic Petri net models.The book contains a reference to several Stochastic Petri net tools which are available to help the reader apply the theory contained in this volume.USP: F?r sicher funktionierende DV-Systeme

When the student of engineering or applied science is first exposed to stochastic processes, or noise theory, he is usually content to manipulate random variables formally as if they were ordinary functions. Sometime later the serious student becomes concerned about such problems as the validity of
